It's not that I wouldn't have a fridge at home, but I go to the market almost everyday.
It's time consuming, not only because my chat with the sales person takes so long, everybody else is doing the same! But who on earth could decide in three seconds if he wants the ham (Prosciutto) soft or hard, sweet or salty, from Parma or Modena, or better the one on offer?
Mercato del Erbe Bologna
Going to the market doesn't mean you do just your errands - living in Italy is a commitment - you have to get the best out of the best! I have, like everybody else, my favourite vendors for vegetable, salami, ham, meat, Olives, Oliveoil, fish and cheese and my decision for the menu of the day is depending on the special daily offer at the market.It's time consuming, not only because my chat with the sales person takes so long, everybody else is doing the same!

As for the coffee, well, for me the absolute best place in Bologna is...a secret I will not reveal publicly! Its a small caffe' where I would not be able to step into if it gained one more customer!!
