I was recommended Perlage from a friend who once lived in Parma, and returns on a regular basis. Since I lived right around the corner, it was a no-brainer. He recommended that I should try "Salumi Misto con torta fritta" for antipasti and "Tortelli dErbetta" as 2 local dishes. They did not disappoint!
