Umbria

Umbria sits in central Italy, between Tuscany, Lazio and Le Marche. It is a land of hills, olive groves, truffles, lentils, cured meats, wild mushrooms and honest country cooking. It is where Vasco came from, and it has shaped the way the Pavilion has cooked since 1971. Umbrian cooking does not hide ingredients. A few things, treated properly, are enough: handmade pasta with a slow-cooked ragu; lentils with sausages; truffles with butter; good olive oil over vegetables. That is why Vasco & Piero's has never been simply another Italian restaurant. The food has always had a particular home.
