Eating
Perugia has a staggering number of places to eat. The first days the mercury rises above
15°C or so (usually in March), dozens of open-air locales spring up along and around
Corso Vannucci.

PIZZERIA
( 075 572 13 22; Piazza Piccinino 11/12; pizzas €5-12; daily) Perugians know to come here
for the best pizza in town. A spaceship-sized wood-fired brick oven heats up pizzas, from
the simplest margherita to the 12-topping 'his and hers'. It gets busy enough to queue on
Saturday nights.
Ristorante Nanà
( 075 573 35 71; www.ristorantenana.it ; Corso Cavour 202; meals €25-35; Mon-Sat) Straw bon-
net lamps cast a quirkily rustic light on this family-run, 15-table restaurant. Simply fur-
nished with a small menu, the food is hearty and done in refined nuovo style - try the pi-
geon with capers.

ORGANIC, PIZZERIA
( 075 573 10 47; www.almangiarbene.com ; Via della Luna 21; pizzas €5-8.50, meals €25-30; Mon-
Sat) This subterranean restaurant at the end of a narrow alley sources nearly all its ingredi-
ents locally from organic suppliers, from the flour used in its pasta to the tender cuts of
beef, thinly sliced and served with rocket or truffle. Pizza and calzone are baked in a
hearth-like brick oven. Even the beer and wines are organic.
Ristorante dal Mi'Cocco

( 075 573 25 11; Corso Garibaldi 12; set meals €13; Tue-Sun) Don't ask for a menu because
there isn't one. Diners get a set menu of a starter, main course, side dish and dessert. You
may receive asparagus risotto in May or tagliatelle with peas and ham in November. Ex-
tremely popular with students, it's best to call ahead.
