When it comes to Michelin restaurants, Bologna is no stranger to this level of culinary excellence.Īfter all, one of the world’s best restaurants - Osteria Francescana - hails from nearby Modena and consistently tops the list. The village of Savigno for example is widely known for their truffles, hosting the annual truffle festival each November and supplying the world with these exquisite morsels of black and white funghi. The region of Emilia Romagna is considered by many to be the culinary capital of Italy with so many traditional Italian foods produced in cities like Bologna, Modena, and Parma, among others.Īnd the restaurants in Bologna, Italy are some of the best in the country.īut venture out to the smaller villages and you’ll find even more unexpected and hidden gems. The legendary trattoria is owned and operated by Michelin Chef Alberto Bettini, whose grandfather Amerigo started the local eatery in 1934. This simple philosophy was so well illustrated at Amerigo 1934, one of the best meals we’ve had this year in Italy, in the small town of Savigno in the lovely Apennine mountains outside Bologna.
We’ve had both types of experiences over the years, and the more good food we’ve eaten in our travels, the more we’ve come to appreciate what exactly good food means, at least to us.Īmazing food doesn’t need to be unapproachable or elitist.įor us, it’s all about the freshest and most flavorful ingredients, artfully and creatively prepared by a skilled Chef.
But it didn’t take long for any false pretense to go away.ĭining at a Michelin restaurant can be a wonderful way to experience the food at top-rated restaurants around the world.īut it can also sometimes be a stuffy and pretentious experience, with self-proclaimed foodies and critics salivating at the chance to dissect the details and motivation behind every tiny morsel and sharing their superior knowledge with the rest of us at the table. I admit, before we saw this charming trattoria in person, I was a little intimidated. Maybe you’re thinking it’s time for a tire change on your car (btw, you’d be correct since it’s the same Michelin company)!

Have you ever dined at a Michelin star restaurant? Do you feel naturally at ease at the prospect of dining at such a place, or maybe a little intimidated at not knowing what to wear or how to order the food or bottle of wine? Savigno may be a hidden gem, but as the epicenter for truffles in Emilia Romagna, I’d argue that it’s one of the best cities in Italy for food, and Amerigo’s interpretation of this lovely food is delectable! What is it like to dine at one of Italy’s Michelin restaurants? Trattoria da Amerigo, Savigno had to be one of the best examples of excellent regional Italian food we had this year, and more importantly, a good lesson in the importance of tradition and simplicity in food.
