Al Cacciatore - Tonezza del cimone

To begin with do not go there if you are a vegetarian the question of what is the choice of the day is answered it should be meat if you like to eat here . There is no printed menu but the available dishes are told by the waiter on the table. There is a choice of 6 first plates and some 4 too 6 choices for the main course. As the name is already telling you have the choice of noodle of Gnocchi, with local herbs from the garden next to the restaurant. Actually everything is local even the wine comes close from the Veneto or from the lake of Bolzano. The service is perfect even if the restaurant if full. I went there with an Italian friend who did the selection of the dishes. Unluckily we went there with our own car and this is why we had to refrain to test all the alcoholic beverages offered. At least I made a photograph of the different sorts of Grappa offered after the meal.

Like the name says it al cacciatore at the hunter's they have a wide range of meat choices. They've got menù that let's you choose a little bit of everything (food tasting) plus very nice wine choices. The restaurant itself is nicely decorated and cozy.

The drive up to Tonezza del Cimone is beautiful, through winding roads overlooking the Val D'Astico, though I wouldn't recommend driving up there in winter. Sunday lunch was packed in this rustic, family run place. The place was full of large families, which I haven't seen since leaving southern Italy. There is no menu. You get what they have for the day and that is a lot of food. 4 pasta courses, 6 meat courses, risotto, 3 vegetable courses and 2 desserts. There was probably more, but at a point one cannot eat any more. I usually do not like restaurants that just give you a ton of food, but this was all well cooked, especially the Ravioli di Zucca and the Vitello. Do not expect any English and do not expect to see any Americans (or non Italians for that matter). Great experience and only about 20 euro a person for all that food. Afterwards, had a nice walk in the woods, overlooking the mountain range.

Friendly and super helpful staff, food and desserts are really great
