Osteria dai Priori

You’ll pass through a wine shop downstairs and climb a flight of stairs to reach this welcoming brick, vaulted room with contemporary blonde furnishings where the emphasis is on local ingredients and age-old Umbrian recipes. A portion of slowly cooked small beans (fagioloina) is paired with eggs and onions and bread salad; gnoccconi (large potato dumplings) are stuffed with fresh ricotta; slow-roasted pork shank (stinco di mialale) is served with crisp potatoes. The staff will eagerly walk you through the ever-changing menu and pair wines with each course.
