C'ERA UNA VOLTA...
E C'È TUTTORA
Quella voglia di tradizione che non passa mai di moda. Il desiderio di assaporare i piatti della cucina di una volta, quella italiana, intramontabile, della pasta e del calice “di quello buono”. Atmosfere indimenticabili che ci rimandano alle nostre radici.

E LA FATICA?
Beh, è quella del vivere, del lavoro, del cercare il proprio ruolo nel mondo… E quale immenso piacere, dopo averne compiuto il senso, ritrovarsi qui la sera e allungare le mani su quel calice, in compagnia del partner o degli amici!

E se ne hai abbastanza anche di questo, è il caso di dire:
“Quando la fatica supera il gusto, lascia… l’Etica e datti al Lambrusco!”

    This is a gem. For sure there are plenty of great restaurants in Bologna but La Fatica proved well worth seeking out. It’s located on a quiet back street and has a charming vibe. The food was excellent. I had Tagliatelle with mushrooms and then Contrafiletto di Vitello. The pasta was perfectly cooked and the mushrooms as good as they can be. The steak was grilled just right and came with oil and balsamico on a bed of ruccola. Yummy. The wine list had plenty of good options in the 25-30 Euro price range, I opted for a nice Refosco. Finally a note about the service. I think it was what set the place apart. Quick, attentive, professional and…should I call it personal? The best places in Italy can make you feel more like a guest than a customer. This is one of them.

    We have never had a dining experience quite like this. Our reservation was for 7:45 and we arrived on time. Service was prompt and our waitress very pleasant. The maitre d, however, seemed stressed and hustled us through dinner. We usually eat fairly quickly but really felt pressured. As coffee and dessert were being served, he essentially rushed us out stating he needed the table for the next service. We were out the door in less than an hour and a half - very atypical for a restaurant anywhere, especially in Italy.

    L'atmosfera e il cibo molto buono! Solo il dolce mi sembrava di non essere dello stesso giorno e di aspetto un po' triste. Comunque era buono. Quando a Bologna, ci tornerei!
