Happy Father’s Day to all the dads out there with us and to those that are guarding us from above.
In Italy there is a special sweet that is baked during the day of San Giuseppe, St. Joseph’s day.
They are called Zeppole and are originally from Naples and popular in all Southern Italy. Of course its origins are deeply rooted with Ancient Rome. The modern recipes consists in fried dough guarnished with custard cream and black cherry.
So if you are in Italy during this time, regardless where - yes even here in Bolzano! - enter in a pastry place and go for it! You won’t be disapointed and you will definitely make someone very happy!

Happy International Women’s Day to all the ladies around the world!
According to the tradition, on this day in Italy a bouquet of Mimosa flower is gifted to the most important women of the family: mothers, wifes and daugthers.
It was chosen in 1946 by the Feminist Association UDI to commemorate this day. Because it is a simple, unexpensive flower, that everyone could afford. It also blooms naturally in March and it grows and thrives in very difficult conditions. A characteristic that over time has often been interpreted as a metaphor for female strength and resilience.

Here’s to strong women: may you know them, may you be them, may we raise them - Unknown

We are full in Carnival season, that time where everbody takes out their costumes and maybe attends one of the many street parades and events that take place in cities like Bolzano or Merano and small villages like Tramin or Laives.

But do you know what the word Carnival means? Of course it’s originally from Latin, “carne levare” that literally means, to remove meat 🍖
So the name itself refers to the tradition of giving up meat during Lent, which begins with Ash Wednesday!

Wanna know more about the traditions, the food and custom during this colorful and funny time of the year?

Join our Bolzano Street Food Tour!

And because we’re still in the Olympic Games fever and we were excited for Lucas Pinhrito Baathen gold medal for the men’s giant slalom, we chose a nice Brazilian carnival song! Are you dancing 💃 🕺 yet?
