Tonight @Alleguede and I head out to Rimini, Italy (birthplace of Fellini) for Sigep - a huge pastry, gelato, coffee and a bit of chocolate trade show.

 

Rimini also happens to be the home of the parents of @Alleguede’s girlfriend and this will be his first meeting with them - so he’s a bit anxious.

 

There is a traditional flatbread from the area that I am hoping Bianca’s nonna  will teach me.

 

Looking forward to the foods of the area and sharing them with you.

There was a Francesca di Rimini whose name has stayed with me since my "History of Renaissance Europe" class some 40-plus years ago. I wish I could remember why.

Don't ask. Eat it.

Francesca da Rimini is a piece of music among the "favorites" digitized on my computer.  The historical Francesca came to a bad end.  Dante meets up with her in the second circle of hell, reserved for the lustful.  Alas she was not there for eating chocolate.
