Al Panigaccio

About

Compiano Castle houses a panigacceria and braceria where you can savour panigacci, a typical speciality of the Lunigiana area, which are highly digestible and can be savoured in their sweet or savoury versions. Originally a type of peasant flatbread , the panigaccio owes its characteristic round shape to the fact that it is baked in a special, red-hot terracotta plate called "Testo", which is heated over an open fire. Its plain dough, made of flour, water and salt, is highly digestible. The perfect complement to cured meats and cheeses, it is also excellent with chocolate and custard. In addition to the panigacci, the restaurant serves salads, grilled meats from local farms and home-made desserts in a welcoming and colourful ambience. You can chose to eat in one of the four rooms inside the restaurant or outside on the terrace.
