Wine & Food Experience in the Historic Market of Padua
Duration
1 to 4 hours
Overview
-
The Market of Padua is in the centre of the city, in a great building called Palazzo della Ragione, built in 1218. The upper floor, called Il Salone, is a great hall, one of the largest medieval halls of the world. On the ground floor of the Salone, the so called “Sotto il Salone”, are hosted various delicatessen shops where you can find all sort of local specialties.
The Mini-Tasting Tours are itinerant menus across the shops and you can enjoy the tastings in street food mode.
Upon confirmation of booking you will receive your tasting itinerary.The tour does not include accompanying guides but is autonomous.During the tasting tour it'll be the local shopkeepers who will tell and explain you about their dishes and about the typical local food and drinks.
“Sotto il Salone” is not a Restaurant, it is a covered market. The tour takes place in street food mode. The guest should not expect to sit at a table to have a lunch. The covered market shelters guests in case of rain but is a building with “open” galleries. In the autumn-winter months the temperatures are those outside.
Tasting menu example: 1 Glass of wine, 1 Tasting of Mountain Cottage Cheese, 1 Sorana-Carpaccio (Young Beef carpaccio) with chunks of Parmesan cheese.
