Flavorsome delights in Modena!
The small town in northern Italy is renowned for its fresh pasta and the famous chef Massimo Bottura, who founded Osteria Francescana in 1995. The restaurant has been named the best in the world twice and uniquely blends contemporary cuisine with traditional flavors. A dinner at Osteria Francescana is a dream for any gastronomy lover. However, please note that reservations must be made very early, as seats are limited. The success of Osteria Francescana has led Bottura to create a business empire.
