Yes, Dario Cecchini is a hard-nosed stickler for tradition and respect for the animals that have given their lives so that you might eat.
He’s also a fab host and runs what is undoubtedly the world’s most interesting bucher shop. He’s a showman. He’s charming. He’s a hardass on the issues of eating local, eating meat, and eating well.
I’m a fan. Obviously. Dare I say we need more Dario Cecchinis and fewer industrial crap food factories?
If you’ve never been to Dario Cecchini’s shop (or even if you have), see our video and get Inside the Antica Macelleria Cecchini.
