The heart of the traditional flavors of Castel di Luco
Our cuisine draws from local produce and perpetuates tradition such as cornmeal polenta stuffed with vegetables, porcini mushrooms and lamb with truffles – by skillfully combining rural and mountain traditions with fresh, wholesome ingredients. Meat dishes, fresh homemade pasta, and cheeses are among the stars of our local gastronomy.

A Symphony of Aromas and Traditions
In the spaces of this Historic Mansion of rare beauty, each dish tells a story passed down from generation to generation. The flavors of our cuisine draw on the bounty of local ingredients and the mastery of ancient recipes – with ingredients, simple and wild as herbs and prized as the truffles and mushrooms typical of our regions.
Our specialties are inextricably linked to the ancient Via Salaria, which runs alongside the castle. Along this important trade route, traders have enriched each other's knowledge of flavors since ancient times. On a journey through the borderland of Marche, Abruzzo, Umbria and Lazio.
Taste Our Land
Within these walls, that tell the stories of centuries, we are serving local specialties that honor the culinary tradition of the Marche region.
Specialties such as “Ciauscolo” – a unique spreadable salami. Or the famous “Vincisgrassi,” a rich and succulent lasagna prepared with fresh pasta and carefully selected local ingredients.
At the end of this culinary journey, our traditional, authentic and irresistible desserts await you: “Pizza dolce di Pasqua”, an Easter dessert, or “Fritelli”, leavened dough pancakes with their unique und truly delicious flavors.
We accompany each dish with the best wines of our region, offering a curated selection to enhance the flavors of our traditional dishes. We invite you to discover the essence of traditional Marche cuisine – immersed in the enchanting atmosphere of Castel di Luco and its centuries-old recipes.
