L'oosteria Dei Locandieri In Abbadia san salvatore

11/09/2025: The best ricciarelli in all of Siena.

25/08/2025: Forget the colorful boxes you see around for tourists. If you want to taste Siena's sweets, the real ones, this is the place to be, and there's nothing more to say. I've been coming here for a while. It's a workshop, not a fancy shop, and you can definitely taste the difference. They make everything themselves, by hand, like they used to. Those white almond pastries are the stuff of Baia, tender and melt in your mouth, and the panforte is the real thing, spiced and with just the right hint of pepper. It's the taste of home. The staff is always friendly, people who know what they're doing and don't sell you smoke. This is a piece of authentic Siena.
