We get to know the Horus Center in Montevarchi, a structure created to meet the growing needs of the territory – specialized services, prevention and cutting-edge health care. In addition to the multifaceted capillarity of skills, there is a very attentive reception and secretarial service, on a human scale as well as quite efficient.

Products that can be purchased – or, rather, tasted – at Osteria Macallè. We talk about it with Tiziana Peruzzi who has been managing a place for true connoisseurs since 2019.
