Pizzicheria de Miccoli

In a small street in the city of Siena, near the Piazza Duomo and Piazza del Campo (there is a global competition held here called Palio di Siena) we suddenly stumbled upon a showcase lavishly decorated with all kinds of meats and, oddly enough, faithfully protected by the stuffed head of a fierce boar. We were standing in the Via di Città and the sign said: Pizzicheria Miccoli. Cheese, pepperoni, ham, sausage, jars of olives, smoked meats, mushrooms, local and imported wines and endless sausages and pickles of various kinds were displayed before our eyes. This caused a type of inescapable call for the traveler who can not avoid stopping along the way to take in all that beautifully displayed cuisine.
