A life dedicated to cooking, one of the best-known innkeepers and a true embodiment of the Italian trattoria, Franco Cimini tells his story for the first time in these pages, revealing his passions and the stories of the flavors that characterize his taste today.

A life spent pursuing the very strong ideals of belonging to and promoting the value of the land, from the Abruzzo origins praised in the memory of gestures and recipes from home to the growth of the bond with the Emilia region. Sealed by the love for his Anna, his partner in life and work, to his network of local producers, from Parmigiano Reggiano to the traditional Balsamic Vinegar of Modena, to the meats that he processes from head to tail, offal first and foremost, in the memory of countryside cuisine, with the complicity of the fireplace and the embers. A love story in which everyone can find themselves in the conviviality of the table and with good food of the Antica Osteria del Mirasole.
