Part of the
enjoyment that
comes from
renting a house
like Mazzaforte for
a holiday -
especially in Italy -
is returning home
from the local
shops and
markets laden
with seasonal
treats for the
table. The many
Umbrian and
Tuscan regional
specialities to be
found in the area
around
Mazzaforte, make
shopping
expeditions at any
time of the year,
thoroughly
rewarding.

Basics
| The Co-op in Umbertide is the nearest large supermarket and the first port of call for food, wine and other essential supplies. There is an in-store bakery, delicatessen, fresh fish and meat sections. There is a good selection of, reasonably priced wines, mainly Italian. Throughout the year there are great seasonal specials on offer - some of which you just can't refuse - like ten kilos of tomatoes (August) for EUR3.90. |
Meat
There is a very good butcher on Via Roma in Umbertide. Be sure to
check out the sausages and the boned, marinated chicken joints.
