THE PLEASURES OF THE TABLE




The local cuisine is famous for its rich variety of carefully prepared typical products. Delicious homemade pasta for example:tagliatelle and lasagna with the classic meat sauce; the exquisitely refined "cappelletti" with cheese filling, cooked in capon broth.

People from the Ravenna area have made a fine art of barbecuing meat and the various types of fish that the sea supplies in abundance. These are often served with the traditional "piadina".

Desserts include Romagnol ciambella and "zuppa inglese",a kind of trifle made with custard and cordial-soaked biscuits.

Internationally famous quality wines such as Sangiovese,Albana and Trebbiano complete the gastronomic picture for the gourmet visitor's pleasure.
