"A vegetarian restaurant housed in a charming villa behind Bari where chef brothers incorporate foraged finds—braising cardoon thistles with onion on a Big Green Egg and then tossing them with egg yolks to create a playful 'cardoon-ara' riff on carbonara; meals are served in a relaxed, shaded setting with simple refreshments like fresh elderflower lemonade, showcasing how a seemingly barren plateau can yield robust, nuanced flavors." - Melanie Hansche
