year it's uh late November mid November but it's quiet it's peaceful there's an old hill ruins some sort of Fort or something way up there a bunch of old abandoned boats some really cool apartments that would be probably pretty cool to live in from this area yeah there's another Fort or something over there Lighthouse yeah I imagine during the summertime during spring warmer weather it's a lot more busy but still not complaining hello there and welcome to another beautiful day here in Italy uh today is the last day out in the countryside tomorrow we're going to Rome and we're going to spend one night and then got to fly back to Japan but today we came to have lunch at this place right here it's kind of hard to tell what it is from out here but the inside is freaking amazing so this is basically an old olive oil mill is what Makoto san was telling me and uh they have a lot of the old equipment and tools on the inside and whatnot but I just want to start the video out here uh and just show you how cool of a place that is over there they told me the name of the uh little town over there but I already forgot I'll try to remember but let's go have a look inside this place it is pretty freaking cool so it's all underground and it's just made up of a bunch of different tunnels and [Music] whatnot I mean it feels like you're dining inside of an old medieval castle or something but where sitting over here that's that's the door to the the restroom but in here they have a lot of the old uh tools and uh equipment that they use to to make olive oil for example this right here this would have been used to crush the olives I'M guessing you would have somebody stand here and uh I don't know how they would do it but ideally these would go around in a circle and squash all the olives and then this machine over here would be the second stage in the process and I guess you would squeeze it all the way down and then you would get the oil and the and the water I don't know He was just explaining it to me but anyways let's go show you food and this is just the appetizer wow beautiful I actually haven't had brochette yet once again we come to a delicious place for lunch and after we're done with this I'm sure we're going to go somewhere else I'll take you along with this so the Primo the first meal is here I went with something random I just picked I couldn't read anything on the menu so I just picked something but I went the pistachio ravioli with bacon crisps on there everyone looks pretty dang good uh she got the wild boar pasta yeah like I said this is like a pistachio bacon ravioli h nice and creamy looking uh-huh has these uh pistachio bits on top kind of crunchy with the bacon the cheese inside look at that wow Kei's liking hers big ole fat noodles like a like a a beef stew thick noodle pasta I'm thinking mine's the best though yeah I like those noodles thick but nice and soft nice tomato sauce but again I think mine cuz it has the bacon the cheese the pistachio sauce I think I got the winner are you kidding me wow okay so they've dropped off the uh the second meal and we got a lot of meat we got this huge beef steak and then these four small ones and also a couple salads I have a feeling it'll cook inside uhhuh so got to eat it got to eat it now okay smells delicious smells unbelievable okay medium rare Medium? no rare rare we call me look this one not rare not it's still freaking delicious still juicy and I am stuffed and I think this is the owner and of course Makoto San knows him cuz he knows everybody it's a workout working here? up and down up and down up exercise no no no it's it's easy it's for a whoa ah feels good nice cool air are you kidding me okay maybe we're not going to go check something special out The Wine room restaurant maybe they do some wine tastings in here I'm not really sure but this is a pretty damn cool room all these old bottles of wine on the wall you can see what this hidden room is like can hear up [Music] there just an extension of the restaurant up there just like that you are outside what a place look at the views over here too look at that
