On March 15th, 2016 I published a report of my experience at Joia’s. At the time, the restaurant was still located on Via Cadorna, and I already had my eye on the cooking of young chef Pasquale Sorrentino, which was only 28 years old at the time. He has come a long way in 7…
Last stop, all aboard! Oh yes, I do believe that Mytilus can claim the record of “the first restaurant in Italy coming from Slovenia.” We are in Muggia, precisely in the Lazzaretto area, and by walking only thirty more steps you will leave Italy behind. This little place opened a few months ago when Matteo…
Yes, you read that right. Only an hour and fifteen minutes from Trieste, although the word “valleys” brings the mind to much more distant destinations. And yet… In an Instagram direct, I asked you what different content you’d like to find on my blog: the answer was a resounding “short 2 days itineraries close to…
Yeah, you’d like that, wouldn’t you. And yet… we’re in Muggia, more precisely in the area that was spruced up a year ago: a promenade that houses the Boa Beach. It consists of three small, well-equipped bars which are dedicated, respectively, to families – they serve ice cream, soft drinks and sandwiches – to the…
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…
Nope, this certainly isn’t the first time I’ve come to Grado and this is not even the first story I tell about it (here is an “old” tale of mine)! It’s always nice to come back here to discover new little places to experience with my now established group of friends! WHERE TO SLEEP? Agenzia…
I’m in Cormons, surrounded by a bucolic landscape. Around me I can only hear the chirping of birds, a few turtle doves and a tractor in the distance from time to time. Here Giuseppe raises his thirty Italian Pezzate rosse cows, pursuing a dream that began thirty years ago. Everything revolves around animal welfare, a…
It has been a while since I first wanted to come and take a look around here: us people from Trieste see it so far away that, to us, it seems a hundred percent like a city of the Veneto region! On the contrary, it’s just an hour away from home and we’re still in…
Ah, the first time! What about the second one? I don’t know what you thought, but to me this is just one of the many times I’ve come in these mountains. And when I’m talking about Sauris the only people that I can be talking about are Michele Grimaz (pictures) and Marco, who we call…
Pilar Franco, born in 1987, fell in love with a wrecked house among the karstic buildings in the center of Santa Croce. With the help of her family and of her love partner Marco Tonsi, she decided to renew it and to open its doors to travelers. So, in 2021, Karstic Inn Crocevia was born. Eight…
