Bergamo’s gastronomic tradition is an authentic heritage of knowledge.<\/p>\n
Typical dishes prepared with local products are inspired directly by nature. From cheeses to mushrooms, from polenta Taragna to Brasato, from Casoncelli to Creste Scalvine, from Stracciatella to Donizetti cake: each season has its own flavors. <\/p>\n
You can enjoy them in upscale restaurants, traditional eateries, or buy them in historic stores and local food markets-each taste tells a story.<\/p>\n","ctac_buttons":{"buttons":false},"ctac_buttons_new":false},{"acf_fc_layout":"filotto","filotto_title":"Typical flavors","filotto_sub":"","filotto_layout":"scroll","filotto_fill":"manual","filotto_items":[{"object":86041,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":377661,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":80869,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":86036,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""},{"object":92636,"title":"","image":false,"youtubeurl":"","label_cta":"","url":"","target":"_self","preview":""}],"filotto_fill_conditions":{"or_filter":[{"and_filters":[{"filter":"kind","kind":607,"post_category":false,"post_tag":false,"area":false,"aggr":false}]}],"only_ambassadors":false,"max_elements":"0","show_total":false,"see_all":false,"custom_show_all_page":null,"order_by":"random","order_way":""}},{"acf_fc_layout":"two_columns_module","tcm_title":{"title_text":"The European cheese capital"},"tcm_ui":false,"tcm_content":[{"acf_fc_layout":"text","text":"
