Embark on a journey into the quintessential social hub of Brescians: the osteria. Discover the ancient trattorias and historic cafés that were once the beating heart of the city. These were gathering places for farmers, industrialists, painters, poets, and ordinary people, where the Brescia of old found its most authentic soul.

Retrace the stories of the historic taverns that still thrive, where Brescian flavours endure over time. Learn about dishes that still resonate with local tradition today, from tripe to casoncelli, from mariconde to bertagnì, from biline to patùna, from spiedo to bossolà, all the way to minestra sporca and persicata.

Hear about the wines that have shaped the city's history: Botticino, Cellatica, Tocai del Lago, and even southern wines, which gave names and identities to the many taverns that opened in the first half of the twentieth century.

Enjoy an itinerary of taste, memory, and culture, to rediscover the Brescia of flavours and stories, where every glass and every dish become pieces of a collective storey.
