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…
I don’t know which of the things listed above you like to do, and I couldn’t pick one to do again, having done them all, as each one made me feel different: joy, laughter, tears of emotion, peace and absolute relaxation. It’s maybe best to start at the beginning, so, shall we? It’s early February,…
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.

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.

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…
At the end of the road that coasts the seaside, in a dead-end street – more precisely in via Economo 12 – rises Loft, a very nice place, on two floors and with an industrial appearance, that has changed many times throughout the years. When I was young (a bunch of years ago, obviously!) this…
