edwardsjarje Sorry, I was being a bit cheeky (not nasty) because you spelled it with two nn’s. It happens often and irritates the locals. I know because I have the privilege of actually living there. I’m Scottish but I’m married to someone who was born and raised in Siena. Sincere apologies if I seemed arrogant. Ciao!
You might want to mention the name of the restaurant or put it in the show notes like other popular vloggers "Samuel and Audrey" do. That's because Google Maps now allows the uploading of cell phone images even while on location. Sometimes there are hundreds of photos which usually also include pictures of most of the dishes offered too. Many include prices as well. In Google Maps, the further one zooms in, more icon locations appear. One can even start their own location and/or leave a rating for one already there. And many times Google Earth's "Street View" 360 globals are included too. Most places are already there all around the world including China and Russia. There are literally millions of photos already posted even for small "mom and pop" shops.
You can just go and try asking. Italians are usually very nice people if you show true interest for their culture and traditions. Especially if you learn a couple of local expressions and don't act like a regular tourist. They can be very happy to let you see and enjoy what they love doing.
I never, EVER, had a bad meal in Siena. Everything is so fresh and prepared with love.
I lived long years of love there!
My 4th year in Siena

This is making me homesick for the time I lived there. Sigh. I miss the food.
I miss Siena too, I have been living there for 5 years, I was at the university there, the food was absolutely fabulous
Happy..You Live The Life..Thanks Foreverything💞

I felt so at home in Sienna. Next time, try my favorite pizza at that very same restaurant...pizza boscaiola. It's like nothing else!!
what restaurant did he visit?
OMGOING it's l'Osteria del Bigelli Siena. They're on the second floor because I recognized the credenza. Fun place, loud, but very savory food.
Sienna is in Spain.
Ahmaf Mahid no, it’s not. You need to travel. Look it up in a map.

How can I get Siena from Rome?
I love Rick, but how many of us will really get to go into the wine cellar if we go there?
