First Stop in Italy, Bra....really




Over the Christmas break, we came back from a nice U.S. visit early and made our way on a 6 night trek through Piedmont region of Italy and the wonderful cities of Torino and Milano.

The first stop on our trek was to the little town of Bra for a lunch at a great little Slow Food restaurant, Osteria Boccondivino. This restaurant is known for their home made Italian food, including the amazing wine infused Risotto I ordered and super smooth and creamy gnocchi that Paula had. In addition to the great food, they had a cool wall of wine and we enjoyed a few glasses from there.
