Enoteca Fontana

Enoteca Fontana is located under the porticoes on Via Farini in the centre if Parma. Locals head to this osteria to have a drink and break bread with strangers at large communal wooden tables — just like in the olden days. Stop by for lunch or for an aperitivo in the evening. Fontana's specialty is the Principe al culatello bread topped with culatello (a type of Prosciutto made with white wine) and Parmigiano. Wine pairings are immaculate, of course.

Bars & Nightlife

Parma boasts a lively before-dinner scene. Many bars have happy hours of all kinds, often accompanied by substantial snacks and good music. For that authentic aperitivo experience, go for a bowl (yes, a bowl) of Lambrusco — fruit-forward sparkling red wine typical Emilia-Romagna region. The actual Parmesan party scene starts in Via Farini later at night. People merrily drift from one wine bar to another, and later continue to dance or enjoy live music in clubs situated both in the centre and outside the city.
