Bergamo Like a Local: A Foodie Guide
Bergamo cuisine comes from peasants’ traditions: it’s simple and dishes are made with local products. Simplicity doesn’t mean lame taste, though. In fact, despite being poor, Bergamasque cuisine is rich in succulent and flavorful dishes. All over the province many restaurants still offer typical cuisine and festivals are often dedicated to traditional dishes, for example the “scarpinocc festival” in Parre or the “polenta taragna festival” in Branzi.
