The Bomboi family farm produces mainly cheese. So far, so original. But the brothers have come up with the idea that, in addition to tastings and meals at the farm, you can also take part in cheese-making workshops. You spend a morning or a day learning all the secrets of milk, and leave with your own creation (of fromage frais). It's a great idea, and if you know anything about the Bomboi family, you're sure not to get bored. We really liked the family's pedagogical approach and their desire to pass on their knowledge.

Nearby "Su Nuraxi", in an unchanged agricultural and pastoral landscape, lies Tenuta Olianas with its 30 ha of vineyards, whose protagonists are Sardinia's indigenous grape varieties. As if to thumb its nose at modernity, Olianas has built its reputation on tried-and-tested ancestral methods: animal traction, biodynamics and amphora aging! The wine tourism offer is vast: winegrower dinners and lunches, vineyard walks, tastings... Innovation at Olianas goes beyond organic farming with bio-integration.

This is the right place to discover bottled Sardinia. The wine merchants know the typical wines on the tip of their taste buds.

A plus and not the least, the pleasant setting with its sofas and deep armchairs suitable for tasting.

We'll happily overlook the French mistake to check if the pastries sold here are the best in town. In any case, they are very appetizing and rather pop. The red fruits colour the chocolate cakes covered with mocha cream, pecan and pistachio chips cover the hot muffins... For Easter, the house perpetuates the tradition of the dove, a large brioche flavoured with chocolate, pistachio or almond. In addition to the pastries, you can stop in this futuristic setting to have a snack on the go.

For over a century, Fermi has been the reference gourmet store in Treviso. Just behind the Pescheria, the displays of this beautiful store would make an ascetic's mouth water. You will find all the regional specialties in preserves and in the fresh section, without forgetting the best oils, wines and condiments from all over Italy. The famous red radish of Treviso in all its forms: in oil (sott'olio), spreadable or as a condiment for pasta. Small catering on the spot.

Welcome to North Sardinia's only artisanal French patisserie! Buttery Viennese pastries, exquisite cakes, macaroons and other delicious surprises that you can also enjoy on site in the pretty little tearoom. A real French breakfast to start the day. Yohann, you spoil us... The store was born of a love affair between a young Frenchman and a Sardinian woman. Our compatriot followed her to her island and seems very happy: a warm welcome, a friendly atmosphere and, above all, delicious treats! We just love it!

A picturesque market frequented by locals for foodstuffs, but also renowned for its stalls of bargain shoes sold at very good prices. If the Testaccio district is full of good addresses for lunch or dinner, you should know that its market is too. Mordi & Vai is one of the best sandwich shops in town! The bread is garnished with Roman specialties such as tripe or artichoke à la romaine. A great place to grab a bite to eat before visiting the neighborhood!

This café dedicated to sweet and savoury pleasures is not lacking in charm with its antique furniture and eclectic decoration with a cosy atmosphere. From the home-made cakes that tempt you in the window, to the coffee with its intense aroma, to the selection of Sardinian wines to accompany salty miniatures, everything is good. If you haven't already done so, try the pardulas, those Sardinian mini cakes with ricotta cheese flavoured with saffron. The speciality is a pastry cream pie(torta della Nonna) that you can learn to make during a course.

It's also the ideal place to eat a pasta dish or a porchetta sandwich in the large courtyard of the halls, which turns into a real lively canteen! On Sundays, you have to arrive early to find a table!
