We’re in the small town of Sutrio, which counts 1200 inhabitants right in the heart of Carnia, Friuli-Venezia Giulia. This village is part of the Borghi autentici d’Italia association, and it’s highly probable that it is also one of the oldest human settlements in all of Carnia. As popular tradition wants it (and remembers it),…
It’s new and still little known, but the Trieste Cocktail Week is back for its second edition, starting on September 11th to the 17th: this will be an event dedicated to quality mixing, which will involve twenty venues that will present innovative and imaginative ideas, other than specific attention to the area and its products.…
A, B, C for Collio! Well yes, I was hosted by the Collio Consortium to take part in the “Awakening of the Senses” experience, a couple of days surrounded by rows of vines, exploring and learning about the area’s white wines (but we also had with a few glasses of red). Before I get deep…
The town of Monfalcone has had its ups and downs, mostly related to the history of its big shipyard.

Ana Morgan’s professional hands prepared a catering that was served in a location new and electrifying to me:…
Here we are! After having told you about Dubrovnik’s history and having shown you its beauties (here the link to the previous article), the moment has come to think about the real stuff: FOOD. Are you ready? It’s a long road, I’m telling you. Swing by Stara Loza,a fantastic restaurant where you can also sit…

Some of you know this story, some of you don’t. When one talks about coffee, it pricks my ears and I’m always ready to decisively take on this subject, like if I was asked about a book that I’ve read a million times page after page, a book that I know by heart. This is…
There’s a wonderful place I’ve already told you about many times. A place that in the spring time is covered in thousands of colors: the Vipava Valley, Vipavska which means dolina in Slovenian, is an area that spreads from the Gorizia plane to the Resderta hills, in Slovenia.
