🇮🇹 Verona | A Delicious Restaurant Hidden Behind the Arena

Restaurant 🍽️ La Griglia Address: Via Leoncino, 29, 37121 Verona VR, Italy 🍋I was initially worried that Saturday would be crowded with tourists, but the restaurant was almost entirely filled with Italians! 🌳The warm, family-like atmosphere and the cheerful conversations of local diners instantly made us feel part of the Italian way of life. 🥑We skipped the appetizers and went straight to the first course pasta and the second course meat. 🍞 Bigoli al Torchio pasta with tomato and beef: the thick noodles were delightfully chewy, and the beef ragù was rich and flavorful with a perfect balance of tomato acidity; 🥩 Tagliatelle with arugula cream sauce: the cream was aromatic but not heavy, and the slight bitterness of the arugula balanced the dish beautifully; 🥣Beef braised in Amarone wine sauce: the meat was tender, and the red wine sauce was deep and complex—a classic flavor of the Veneto region; 🍝 Grilled lamb chops: seasoned with traditional homemade herbs and garlic, the meat was juicy and not gamey. #WineWorld #VeronaTravel #ItalianCuisine
