The dish of the house is the "Anguilla alla Vernaccia" (eel with Vernaccia wine), a non-traditional dish of the Lake Bolsena, but which has a significant historical reference in Chant XXIV of the Purgatory in Dante Alighieri's Divine Comedy, where Pope Martin IV (Bonagiunta from Lucca), is precisely located in Purgatory, to serve his gluttony with fish (the eels) of Lake Bolsena and Vernaccia wine.

Already at that time, the eels of Lake Bolsena cooked with Vernaccia was a dish of which the pope was very greedy and it's said that in order to make even more flavored, he did die by immersing them in the Vernaccia wine.

Even today, the eels of Bolsena are part of our cooking, and only us, at the Trattoria del Moro, offer them to our customers cooked with the same system created by Pope Martin IV.
