Last night we went out to scope the town. We found a market and bought some staples so we could have breakfast. We could not find an open restaurant (restaurants are usually closed between 3:30 pm and 7:30 or 8 pm) so we stopped in a little pizza shop and had 2 slices. They were not great so we said cross this place off. But people were coming in and carrying out tons of food. The next day we were hungry at lunch so we decided to try their take out and ordered ½ chicken, lasagna, and spinach. All 3 were outstanding – the place is a winner.
In the meantime it stopped raining and the sun came out so we toured the neighboring towns. We went to the south and visited a lovely small hill town of Fossato di Vico. The views from the top were gorgeous. Then we drove north and visited another small hill town of Costacciaro. The cities were very quiet, almost empty, maybe because it is Sunday. There doesn’t seem to be anything going on in Sigillo, either. The only thing we saw were groups of old men congregating around the bars. It’s always just men. Maybe women are home making pasta?
