The name of this restaurant derives from the misuse of the Italian verb "parare" which means "to cover" as in this case the roof of the entrance to the restaurant used to be a "shed" or annex to the original Hotel Posta Inn for over 200 years the stop-over for pilgrims and weary travellers on their way to Rome offering food and rest, and hospitality to those guests enjoying the therapeutic spa waters in the village, just infront of the restaurant.
Hospitality and delicious, typical dishes have always been served here in the old-style dining rooms with oak beams.
Giancarlo Diodato, chef and owner (past owner of the Osteria del Leone since 2001), prepares dishes that are typical of the area adding his personal twist and changing menus 2 or 3 times each week with home-made pasta (pici, which are fat spaghetti, ravioli stuffed with potato, pecorino cheese and mint, ribollita vegetable soup, egg-ribbon pasta with wild-boar sauce) and main courses depending on the season (braised wild boar, guinea fowl in vinsanto wine, rabbit in vernaccia wine, grilled pecorino cheese with radicchio).
A 3 course meal averages at € 25.00 excluding drinks.
On a nice day, and in summer evenings, you can enjoy your meal in our lovely terraced garden with a view on the valley.
