Porta Saragozza

Porta Saragozza today

You know? I live near Porta Saragozza. The most beautiful port of Bologna. At least in my opinion. My family has lived in the area of Saragozza street for four generations.
As you can see from the two photos (you can see the other photo if you read more) Porta Saragozza has changed very little.
Like all Bologna doors, this door also divides the historic center of the city from the area called "fuori porta". This means "out of town".

The bolognese spaghetti does'nt exist

Tagliatelle al ragù... yummy!

Oh no, it don't exist. When you go in an italian restaurant everywhere in the world and read "spaghetti bolognesi" in its menù, you must know this terrible truth.

In fact, spaghetti is the best neapolitan speciality, based on tomato. Don't you believe it? You have to do a reason. Neapolitans and Bolognese will thank you.
