Seafood RisottoWhen we decided to spend our last day in Umbria at the Lago di Trasimeno, the Hub automatically opened his trusted Michelin Guide to find us a place to lunch in and chose Il Fischio del Merlo with its 2-cutlery rating. It proved to be an excellent choice and I am still reeling from the good choice of seafood dishes in the menu.
Il Fischio del MerloThe restaurant is near Passignano but is situated a little further inland in a lovely farm setting. It has horses, lots of flora and a lovely pool. We ate out next to exotic cactuses and had a lovely meal of gratinated seafood, seafood risotto, lobster in hot sauce, grilled rombo (St Pierre) with zucchini purée...
Definitely worth stopping by. Wish I had space for the antipasti, they sounded great.

RépondreSupprimerD, now that you mentioned it, I think I heard it calling for you too :-).
RépondreSupprimerE, I think you'll love Umbria, it's really pretty.
Fleur, if you love seafood you should make a trip to Bretagne, I still daydream about the seafood there at times.
I know...there is still so much of France to explore esp the north. Now that you mention they have great seafood, I'm going to make it a priority.
