In the Molarotta country district, only 2 kilometres from Camigliatello, one of the most characteristic and busiest tourism centres in the Sila, stands the restaurant pizzeria La Pignanella. Boasting a large car park and a well-equipped children’s playground, the restaurant is completely surrounded by greenery, and provides a remarkable view over Lake Cecita.

The cuisine is excellent, ranging over a wide variety of tasty recipes, including the typical Sila and Calabrian gastronomy as well as generally Italian dishes, all extremely appetising and full of flavour. Visitors should not miss out on the tempting mixed antipasto based on pressed pork and local cheese, the mushroom salad, genuine delights even for the most exacting palate, the “tagliatelle” with boletus mushroom, the “pappardelle alla Pignanella”, the “fusilli alla pecorara”, in which 4 different local cheeses are used, the mixed grills and the appetising roast sausages; all washed down with excellent local or national wines capable of satisfying the connoisseur. Finally, the pizzas are exquisite, especially since they are cooked in a wood oven.

Featured in the noted Veronelli guide, the restaurant pizzeria La Pignanella is an obligatory stage for tourists who, attracted by the naturalistic and scenic beauties of the Sila high plateau, wish to discover the ancient gastronomic traditions of the area, enjoying strongly flavoured and wholesome dishes. The restaurant has a spacious welcoming dining area, with a capacity of around 180 seats, so the restaurant pizzeria La Pignanella is ideal for banquets and receptions in the extraordinary setting of the Calabria National Park.
