Ristorante i Ricchi

At Ristorante i Ricchi, owner Christianne Ricchi re-creates the traditional Tuscan flavors of her family's trattoria in Cercina, Italy, where she honed her cooking craft more than 20 years ago. The resulting menu of handmade pastas, prime aged beef, and grilled seafood and fowl garnered the Insegna del Ristorante Italiano—a certificate of culinary authenticity—from Italian president Oscar Luigi Scalfaro.

In keeping with Christianne's Tuscan roots, the rustic decor at Ristorante i Ricci evokes the ambiance of a country villa. Terra-cotta tiled floors share warm hues with murals depicting garlands of greenery and trompe l'oeil architectural details. In the open kitchen, chefs sear meats with embers from the same oak-fueled flames that warm the dining room from the finished side of the wood-burning hearth. In the front room, floor-to-ceiling windows filter natural light through lush potted plants, giving the dining area a garden-like feel.

The Groupon Guide to: Apple Picking

As President Dwight Eisenhower always said, "An apple a day keeps the doctor away. An apple at night? Ooh, there's a sneaky delight!" Here are some tips for gathering these famed fruits:

Plant an Apple Orchard: Apples grow faster when they're nourished by fertilizer, which is the businessman's way of saying “thick, sweet dirt.”

Climb an Apple Tree: Once your apple trees grow, you'll have to scale one to get its fruits. Use a ladder or make the apples come to you by burying the tree in more and more dirt until you can walk to the top of it.

Gather Apples in a Basket: You'll need a basket that's round, deep, and has never been used to transport a sick person.

Make Something: Core, peel, and bake your newly acquired apples into a pie, tart, or wet mush that is meant for babies but can be eaten by soft-toothed adults.

What did President Eisenhower always say about apples? Find out in today's Groupon Guide.
