Gastronomy
Discover the real and authentic Italy. The food in the area is characterized by simplicity and high-quality ingredients. We find ourselves in Emilia Romagna, where they produce Parmesan cheese, Lambrusco wine, Parma ham, Mortadella salami and Aceto Balsamico. This is also the area where the tortellini, tortelloni and sauce bolognaise originated.
Traditional Balsamic vinegar of Modena
“Aceto Balsamico Tradizionale di Modena” is a premium brand of balsamic vinegar. The natural temperature fluctuations near Modena, Vignola and Spilamberto makes the perfect conditions for the vinegar. It is carefully aged in barrels made of different kinds of wood for many years. We have contact with a family who are passionate about the balsamico they produce and they happily show and explain the process – and even let us taste a few precious drops.
Plenty of Food and Culinary Experiences
Italian is well known for its authentic and gourmet dining experiences. We can show you the way to a long line of authentic restaurants in all price ranges for instance: La Staffa, Ca´Cerfogli known for delicious truffle & mushroom (it’s a must!), great pizzas at Il Principe, Amerigo known for exceptional good food and finally we have Osteria Francescana in Modena.
