Hostaria La Frasca — Restaurant in Modena

Absolutely loved this little hidden gem in Modena! Stumbled upon it by chance and it turned out to be one of the best surprises of my trip. The atmosphere is warm, original, and full of charm — a perfect blend of creativity and comfort that makes it feel like you’ve discovered something truly special.

Ok, we should have verified before, but notice it for yourself. Expensive and stollen, that's definitely that we...
