ANTICA ROSTICCERIA DEL CORSO
Read moreThis downtown rotisserie is well known to Reggio Calabria residents who praise the quality of its fried calzoni stuffed with mozzarella and tomato, arancini (rice balls) and the traditional mozzarella in carrozza (mozzarella between two slices of bread, all fried). The prices are low and the service is fast; convenient for a lunch on the go. The house also offers quite good pizzas and some pasta dishes.
CORDON BLEU
Read moreYou can't miss this café whose terrace occupies the centre of Corso Garibaldi, the pedestrian axis that crosses Reggio Calabria. At aperitivo time, it is here that the locals interrupt the traditional passeggiata to drink a spritz accompanied by appetizers, while distractedly watching the uninterrupted flow of passers-by. The address is appreciated for its old-fashioned service and its lively local atmosphere. You can also have lunch here or enjoy a pastry, a cappuccino or a good bergamot ice cream.
