What a great find for Sunday lunch - The Auberge d What a great find for Sunday lunch - The Auberge de Motz in The Savoie and just outside Seyssel. A wonderful lunch stop on the sunny terrace of the Auberge de Motz, just off the Via Rhona cycle path - well when I say just off… it’s a 2.5km gentle climb up to the village of Motz, but well worth it for the fabulous scenery and views! We enjoyed such a warm and friendly welcome, a delicious lunch and a genepi to help us on our way after lunch! I’ll definitely be going back there! Swipe right for views of The Via Rhona route and Seyssel! . . . #restaurantsavoie #aubergemotz #viarhona #viarhonaveloroute #rhone #seyssel #cycletouringfrance #aubergedemotz #tasteofsavoie #frenchfoodblogger #bloglifestyle #frenchblogger #tasteofsavoieeats #travelfrance #francetourisme #visitlafrance #explore_rhonealpes

Todi is about half way between Perugia and Terni, or Orvieto and Spoleto. Umbria is in the middle of Italy in the most beautiful countryside with an abundance of hilltop and medieval villages and towns. Not to mention fabulous restaurants, wonderful food, delicious wines and incredible olive oils.

During our Italian road trip discovering Umbria we During our Italian road trip discovering Umbria we enjoyed a fabulous extra virgin olive oil tutorial and tasting at the wonderful olive farm of Passo della Palomba. Alessandro and Claudia welcomed us onto their beautiful 19th century estate just outside Todi which they have expertly and lovingly restored to understand and appreciate the qualities of the oils. The views from Passo della Palomba were fantastic. They produce some fabulous wines too! The olive tree in the photos is around 600 years old! I am currently writing a blog post about this great experience in the Umbrian countryside - coming soon on Taste of Savoie! #italianoliveoil #oliveoil #visitumbria #visititaly #umbriatourism #italyroadtrip #passodellapalomba #italianwines #Umbria #todi #oliveoiltasting #extravirginoliveoil #olioextraverginedioliva #tasteofsavoie

Visiting Orvieto This delightful medieval Umbrian Visiting Orvieto This delightful medieval Umbrian city really must go on your list when visiting Italy. Construction began in 1290 on the incredible striped marble Duomo that dominates the landscape. Wander through the old town with narrow streets where you will find cafes, restaurants and artisan shops selling typical regional products. For lunch, just outside Orvieto we discovered a wonderful restaurant a Bib Gourmand as recommended by Michelin and it was so worth the visit. Ristorante da Gregorio is a little out of the city. This family owned and run restaurant is wonderful. The passion of this 2nd generation family run trattoria uses the best local and regional produce including produce from their own gardens. Their dishes were interesting and imaginative - all beautifully plated and described. You really must leave room for the delicious inventive panna cotta dessert inspired by ingredients from Pantelleria included salt extracted from capers, fresh oregano and a caramel made with the juice of the zibbibo grapes some photos didn’t show in this post please check my next post for more yummy lunch photos! It would be hard to say which was my best foodie experience in Umbria but this one was right up there! We tasted local olive oil and drank local wine from Orvieto - a really great Italian foodie experience #eatitaly #orvieto #umbriatourism #visititaly #italyroadtrip
I’m so enjoying the normality of restaurants bei I’m so enjoying the normality of restaurants being open again here in France. If you know me, you’ll know this is my thing! I love visiting restaurants everywhere I go, trying local produce from every region I visit in France and seeking out new culinary delights. So… in Annecy is Restaurant Cozna a wonderful restaurant owned and run by Leo and Sandra, who clearly love what they do and my goodness they do it well! Michelin awarded them the Bib Gourmand in 2021, so obviously I’m not the only one who thinks they are running a great restaurant. I’ve written a review of a few visits to Restaurant Cozna on my blog Taste of Savoie. 🍽LINK IN BIO🍽 DO YOU HAVE A FAVOURITE RESTAURANT IN ANNECY? - PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHICH ONE - in the comments below #annecyrestaurant #eatannecy #frenchcuisineannecy #restaurantcozna #Annecy #iLakeAnnecy #tasteofsavoie #foodwinewomen #yesmichelinguide #bloglifestyle #frenchblogger #foodandtravelblogger #makeitdelicious #livewelleatwell
