The farm House of Lime of Vigliano d'Asti (AT) is definitely a very nice little place in which to spend a nice evening in the quiet countryside of Asti.
As mentioned above the place is really nice and welcoming, while the kitchen has not left us a memorable souvenir.
All things to try.
House of Lime is located on a 24 to Nalbissano Vigliano d'Asti, which is about ten minutes' drive from Turin-Piacenza motorway Asti Est. The road to the farm once you leave the highway is really easy, maybe too much, so much so that there are very few signs for the farm. For those who have the TomTom Navigator when you type the address will not be accepted via the number of Nalbissano then once you get to the top of the road is reached the finish line as we are still waiting for a few hundred yards up the road is not paved but in excellent condition. The advantage is that the Linden House is situated in open countryside away from noise and busy roads.
As I said the place is really beautiful. Upon entering a well-maintained lawn welcomes us with a nice terrace decorated with taste. In the summer evenings you can eat outdoors and thanks to a good clean-up you can do it without being in turn eaten by mosquitoes.
The interior is divided into four large rooms are very nice, clean and tastefully decorated. Really nice.
so beautiful place (the farm offers hospitality through 3 apartments and one bedroom - we have not tried it and then do not comment - as you can see from the website farm) than memorable restaurants. Not bad but quite "normal." But we get into detail.
In our case we dined outdoors on a table with fine equipment and the comfortable wicker chairs and really nice. The dinner consisted of two appetizers, first course, main course, dessert, fruit, coffee and ammazzacaffè. House wine and water included.
start their own wine. Here great. We took home barbera (served in bottles) and was really a good choice. Really good. For those who are afraid of incurring bad jokes with wine della casa in questo caso si può andare sul sicuro. Una delle migliori barbera mai bevute. Noi abbiamo preso la barbera ferma, c'era anche la possibilità di avere quella frizzante o come bianco uno chardonnay anche qui prodotto dalla loro azienda vinicola.
Passiamo alla cena. Il primo antipasto Insalata Russa. Buona. Forse la migliore delle portate. Porzione generosa con bis. Il secondo antipasto Sformato di zucchine con salsa di capperi, acciughe e pomodorini secchi. Particolare e gustosa la salsina un po' meno lo sformato che sapeva molto di frittata. Comunque antipasto discreto.
Come primo, scelta tra tajarin al ragu di carne o tajarin al pesto aromatico (ovvero pesto, zucchine and potatoes). The tajarin homemade cooked to perfection but the two condiments nothing exceptional. Large portion helped by the fact of having arrived at the first after only two starters. Discreet.
A good second choice of stew with roasted peppers and mixed cheese. Unfortunately, none of us took the mixed cheese, and then we can say only the stew. Again nothing is worthy of note. Good but nothing special.
The sweet Bunet. And this helmet with a bunet which can be found in the many pizzerias in town. Maluccio. Finally, a
Ciottolina with sweetened peaches. Good peaches, but here too little imagination. Finally
coffee, made from the Moka. Not bad but nothing to do with the coffee bar.
ammazzacaffè As a liquor produced at home, in contrast to the wine did not give me great satisfaction. A sort of mulled wine barbera bent or cold. Low alcohol and very sweet. This, however, particularly imaginative and unlike the rest of the menu.
entire dinner with some good bread sticks.
services for children. The staff is very friendly and helpful with the children. Very beautiful meadow with the closed gate that allows kids to play in a green space without danger. High chair for children.
Summing it seems a good place in which it might be worth coming back for further cooking and maybe find some excellent that we could not find in our visit.
worth it if you have the children for the peace of the place and the grass lawn with well cared for.
Tried one evening in August 2008. (Official website: http://www.tiglio.it/home_it.html )
