Pizzeria Vesuvio In Castell'arquato

04/04/2024: I went to this restaurant a couple of weeks ago with my boyfriend. The place is not very large but it is well looked after, the style is of an old tavern where you left your heart as a child. While we were choosing from the menu (which is very short, made especially for undecided people like me) they started bringing us a glass of prosecco and a small platter with cured meats and delicacies. While we were enjoying this entreé, one of the waiters came to list the off-menu items for the day. In the end I had the pumpkin and nettle ravioli (they give you the option of making half and half) with butter: spectacular; My boyfriend had the anolini with speck ragù: the end of the world! And secondly, so as not to miss anything, a nice portion of divided tripe. Very good! Another gem of the place: when it was time for coffee they brought us, along with the coffees, also a small plate with biscuits, two mandarins and some dried fruit. I felt at home. In short, all this to say that if you pass through Piacenza, do the TRE GANASCE stage, you won't regret it!!

01/04/2024: Good place to eat typical food from the region. They bring you appetizers with pickled onion, chickpeas and “butter” from the pork fat with a wine and their sausages, which they say are on the house but then they charge it in the price, although it is appreciated. I tried the tortellini mix that includes the pilarei e faso, delicious but the tortellini much better, with flavor and to the point. And for the second, the picula di cavallo, horse meat stewed with polenta (one of the best). The flavor is delicious, but once I tried it I would order the horse tartare. With coffee, they give you a liqueur, cookies, tangerines and peanuts. It is worth trying, without a doubt.
