15/08/2024: A journey into the heart of Friulian tradition. Osteria Agli Antenati in Lucinico was a real discovery. From the first moment we were welcomed with the friendliness and passion of Denis and his family, who guided us to discover the menu, carefully explaining the choice of local ingredients and the history of some typical dishes.
Our lunch started in the best way: a delicious Pils beer from Reservoir Dogs, a nearby Slovenian brewery, accompanied us in tasting the D'Osvaldo raw ham, a true jewel of local gastronomy, enhanced by the sweet and sour onions and crostoli with fried sage, fragrant and tasty.
To follow, we opted for a fresh and light gazpacho, perfect for cooling off, and a beetroot risotto with an intense and enveloping flavour, enriched with drops of smoked blue cheese and apple. A combination of flavors that delighted our palate.
But the highlight was undoubtedly the Ljubiaska, a must that we couldn't miss. Filled with stewed bacon and Montaggio cheese, this typical specialty won us over with its soft texture and rich, enveloping flavour.
