You will learn about the market’s history and locals’ shopping habits. Guess what? you will eat as well! You’ll discover traditional street foods that most tourists never get to taste, like the rustic crescione—a folded, pan-crisped pastry filled with herbs, cheese, or cured meats—and the beloved tigelle, those warm little bread disks stuffed with local specialties. But it doesn’t stop there: we also serve up modern takes on regional classics, like the irresistible tortellino fritto served with silky Parmigiano cream for dipping. All strictly local and outrageously tasty.
