The story
Bologna's covered market from after Italian unification, which stood empty for years before reopening as a food hall in the heart of the Quadrilatero. Stalls sell salumi boards, fresh pasta, fried fish in paper cones and more. It is a handy way to taste several things without booking a restaurant, and it is open every day, which helps on Sundays when many shops close.
🍽️ What to order
- Salumi and cheese board
