Eats and Drinks
Modena is home to one of the best restaurants in the world, Massimo Bottura’s Osteria Francescana and is famous for it’s culinary culture. There is so much choice and so I’ve decided to share my personal favourite places with you where good food, wine and drinks are accompanied by smiling faces and friendly atmospheres 🫶🏻
Traditional crescentine (also known as ‘Tigelle’ for the stones that they were originally cooked in) can be eaten here with a lovely outdoor area and view of L’Accademia Militare. Great for a quick lunch or for enjoying a glass of local Lambrusco accompanied by these little local sandwiches.

The location attached to Mercato Albinelli is a must, you can’t sit inside as it’s too small but stop by before visiting the market and try a sandwich which have been appreciated by none other than Massimo Bottura of Osteria Francescana fame!
