ANTICA OSTERIA DA BIGAT
A stone’s throw from the Bollente thermal fountain and its sulphurous water. You may feel the traditions from the moment you step in, a characteristic tavern, where the intense aromas from the kitchen overwhelm you. Generous portions, simple atmosphere and historical dishes are the secret of this osteria.
Farinata, carpione / carp, pasta and fagioli (pasta and beans), stockfish, tripe.
In season you can taste the bagna cauda, goat’s cheese formaggette and piemontese mustard.
A curiosity: Bigat is the humorous name that was given to the customers, that after lunch, would fall asleep by the log fire, just like the bigat, the dialect term used to indicate silk worms.
