Dining, History

When you think of Verona, you immediately find yourself quoting from William Shakespeare’s “Romeo & Juliet” because this is where his greatest romantic tragedy takes place. Through the winding cobblestone streets full of history to hidden gems of fine Veronese dining to summer operas under the stars, Verona really is a romantic escape for lovers.
