If you find yourself in need of a sweet treat whilst exploring Modena then you may well find yourself at Forno San Giorgio.
This tempting pasticceria has been satisfying the locals since 1902, and is a great place to stop off for a snack and a coffee.
We were tempted in on our first visit to Modena and drooled over the large selection of cakes and pastries. They also sell savoury snacks for those not after a sugar hit.
To be honest I can't remember exactly what we ate, but I do recall happy memories from this place....no doubt it was something evil! Leave a Comment Theme: BakeryPrice: US$11-20 » Currency ConverterComparison: about averageAddress: Via Taglio 6, ModenaPhone: 059 223 514

On our night in Modena we had dinner at Ristorante Belvedere Da Danilo. The restaurant is located on a cobbled street, just north of Piazza Mazzini. There is a small covered terrace area along the street, and a decent size restaurant inside.
The evening we dined we didn't have a reservation and really wanted to sit outside as it was such a lovely evening. There was one little vacant table with a reserved sign on it, but when we enquired they whipped the sign of and gave us the table.
Service was quite friendly and slightly more efficient than the usual Italian style.
To start, we ordered the Antipasto della casa, which consisted of some meats and cheese served with some strange, but very tasty, cheesy puff things. We ordered a yummy bottle of Rosso di Montalcino to drink.
Main course for me was the Tagliatelline con Cinghiale (pasta with Wildboar sauce) and Alex had the Veal with mushrooms, ham and asparagus. Both were quite tasty. Dessert was Tiramisu for Alex….and a couple of spoonfuls for me.
The bill came to 63 euro. Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$31-40 » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: Via Coltellini 31, 41100 ModenaPhone: 059 225 498Directions: Just north of Piazza Mazzini

Pizzeria da Italo. The first restaurant I could find around the main square, and finding it was not so easy! The question pops by itself: How could Pavarotti get so fat (or alternatively: can I have the address of his mamma? ;-))
I hope Andrea won't be mad at me for not trying anything Emilian while in Emilia Romagna, but my stomach was loud, my pocket rather shallow and my knowledge of regional food not good enough, so I settled for the old tested thing (well, at least it's Italian!). Anyway, Da Italo is a warm place looking like a typical trattoria and serving dishes other than pizza too.
Well... pizza! (a good one, may I add)

Price: around 25 Euros, depending on wine.
They have a wonderfull selection of italian wines and they can suggest a good one.
The atmosphere is very relaxed, in pure country style.
'Lardo di colonnata con pane ai cereali caldo' (Colonnata Lard served with warm cereal bread)
'Spaghetti al torchio con guanciale' (hand made spaghetti with onions and bacon)(you'll better have none to kiss that evening!!)
'Filetto di manzo all'aceto balsamico' (beef filet with a special balsamic vinegar sauce)(cow better than pork... but you have to like vinegar a lot to fully appreciate this special dish)
'Fragole con zabaione al vino passito' (Strawberries with egg and Passito wine sauce) Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Via Barchetta - Campogalliano (Modena) it's in Campogalliano, just north of Modena.

The price is affordable (20 euro per person) and the atmosphere is familiar and relaxed. No elegant dresses are required.
Noisy as all the italian restaurants!!
Gnocco fritto and Tigelle (typical Modena's menu), with cheese, lard, parmesan...
add Pinzimonio (mixed vegetables) with balsamic vinegar, salt and olive oil
Also try 'Pennette al barolo' (Pasta with a special Barolo wine sauce) and 'Pappardelle al cinghiale' (long pasta stripes with wild-pork sauce) Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Piazzetta Redecocca (Modena) In the city center, 3 minutes walk from the cathedral It's better to reserve, it's very smallOther Contact: telephone: 059242750 visa accep

For a delicious, and inexpensive lunch pay a visit to the food and produce market on Via Albinelli, one of the streets that runs off of Piazza Grande. After you’ve gotten your fill walking through the stalls filled with fresh and vibrant fruits and vegetables, stop by one of the bakeries to pick up a fresh roll. Then bring your roll over to one of the butchers and ask them to make “un panino con proscuitto crudo di parma.” Proscuitto crudo di parma is truly one of the greatest delicacies on earth with it’s smooth, velvety texture and light savory flavor. A few slices of proscuitto won’t cost too much, and it makes for a delicious, authentic lunch.

A Modena si mangia bene ovunque. Ma io preferisco.
'Lo stallo del Pomodoro', il largo Hannover.
'La trattoria del Cantone', sulla nuova estense, dopo il cavalcavia dell'autostrada.
'La trattoria della Madonnina', seguendo la via emilia, dal centro verso ovest. Appena prima del cavalcavia del bowling.
'Valle', in localita' omonima. Si segue la Nuova Estense in direzione di pavullo. Qualche chilometro dopo 'Pozza di Maranello', sulla destra un bivio per 'Valle'. La strada e' piccola ma non bisogna mai cambiare direzione. 3-4 km e si e' arrivati.
I primi piatti, tutti. Dalla gramigna con salsiccia, ai tortellini in brodo. Maccheroncini al pettine e tagliatelle.
Gnocco e tigelle per chi non le ha mai provate, ottima alternativa alla serata in pizzeria.
Borlenghi, nella zona di Vignola. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

IN THE CENTER OF OLD TOWN, A 20-SEAT RESTAURANT IN A RESTORED ANTIQUE BUILDING. VERY ROMANTIC, EXCELLENT CHOICE OF WINES RIGHT FROM THE UNDERGROUND CELLAR, "TRADITIONAL" AND " CREATIVE" CUISINE.
ALL ENTREES AND PASTA ARE GORGEOUS Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$41 and up » Currency ConverterComparison: more expensive than averageAddress: NEXT TO PALAZZO DEI MUSEI

If you are travelling on A22 freeway, which goes from Brenner to Modena and you have arrived until Modena, you are in Campogalliano, just 10 km far from Modena, home town of the first "Bilancia" of the world (i'll check translation later...the instrument to check a wheight).
It just a jumb into the past: everything is the same as 20 or 30 years ago. Everything is home made and you can choose what the best culinary tradition of Modena can offer. Do not go on Sundays, it's better to phone because it's very small. Dont think they speak English.
A pasta dish can cost 6-7 euros which is really cheap now.
the last time I ordered a tunafist fillet. half row. delicious Leave a Comment Theme: LocalPrice: US$21-30 » Currency ConverterComparison: least expensiveAddress: via Magnagallo Est, 20 Campogalliano ModenaPhone: +30 059 526218Directions: From exit Modena-Campogalliano you have to follow the direction to trattoria La barchetta and you will arrive under a train brigde to a very old house.
