Where to eat Galician Friesian in Siena
Galician Friesian: the meat that few people talk about
Alongside the Rubia, Galicia also breeds the Galician Friesian, a lesser-known breed, but one capable of surprising meat lovers. These cattle, born as dairy cows, once raised and grazed develop a savoury, mature meat with unique mineral notes. It is not a meat you easily find on restaurant menus, but those looking for a different experience cannot miss out on a real steakhouse in Siena.
Why the Galician Friesian is so special
Those who wonder where to eat Galician Friesian in Siena must know that this meat has unusual characteristics. Its tastiness derives from the diet and the Atlantic environment in which the animals grow, made up of green pastures and sea air. The result is a strong-tasting meat with an aromatic profile ranging from lactic to mineral.
