It’s nothing new, really: osterieand trattorieare the beating heart of our cuisine. Beside our home kitchens, of course. But that’s the point because there shouldn’t be much of a difference in the atmosphere, the scents and the flavors we love and experience at home, and those of the best osterie across our territory.
The great Gualtiero Marchesi used to say that “Italy is a country of inns and innkeepers,“ of osti e trattorie, and he was right. More, perhaps, than many other famous cuisines, ours is based on simplicity, tradition and what nature can offer in season, which are the key elements of the food we should find in osterie.
