Traffico Limitato - HFF!

Traffico Limitato - HFF!
In an effort to allow restaurants to resume business as soon as possible while limiting impact on the virus transmission, the government revoked regulations that keep private businesses from occupying public spaces. This allowed restaurants that did not have outdoor spaces to set up tables in the public street (usually only on the sidewalks). Here, historical Trattoria "Il Moretto", serving some of the best food to be had in town, has taken advantage of the fact that it lies on a downtown alley where vehicular traffic is restricted to take over most of the street.
I must say I like this. It took me back to a time when regulations were lax or nonexistent and life regularly spilled over on the streets and it gives, to towns and even cities, the feeling of a more relaxed, tolerant, even intimate, village life.

HFF, everybody, and wishing you all a fun weekend!

A lovely street scene Annalia. That is what I call making use of the space - the canopy over the table looks as if it just fits!! It must be nice to have the opportunity to enjoy yourselves and get back a bit of normality. Sadly opening everything up here, pubs, clubs etc., may well have contributed to the rising covid figures.

Have a lovely weekend, HFF!

Yes, I read about the upswing in cases you are experiencing. Here, fortunately, we are holding up better than expected so far. Some regulations were kept in place all along, like masking indoors and in crowded outdoor places and they seem to have helped. Not sure what will happen now that the season will no longer be conducive to dining "al fresco". Personally, I still avoid dining indoors, despite the green pass requirements.
Thank you and have a wonderful weekend, Carol.

It looks very pleasant in this lovely capture Annalia, while not a fan of outside dining I understand the circumstances but the whole meeting and dining thing still has risks as we are finding out again.

Annalia S. has replied to Roger (Grisly) club
Thank you, Roger. You are right, of course. We did eat out a few times outdoors this summer, but will avoid restaurants now that the season no longer permits dining outdoors. Despite the green pass requirements for patrons and workers, we still feel it's too much of a risk.
Have a nice weekend and stay vigilant. As the Americans say, it's not over until the fat lady sings.

A likeable spot my friend. Lets look at the menu! Well done.

HFF, enjoy your weekend. Herb
2 years ago.
Annalia S. has replied to Herb Riddle club
The menu is local mountain cuisine. Polenta (a substitute for bread made from corn meal) with various stews, mushrooms (grilled, sautéed, fried, roasted), seasoned cheeses, sausages, salami, grilled meats and sides of cole slaw, chicory greens, beans, roasted pumpkin and other vegetables. Also some hearty soups. All very tasty but a bit heavy on the butter (which is locally made and delicious, but still not the healthiest choice if you are watching cholesterol).
Is your mouth watering yet? :)))
Have a nice weekend and thank you for visiting, Herb.

Annalia S. has replied to tiabunna club
You are going towards the warm season, so reopening with preference to eating outdoors should work out. The UK situation, though, would seem to caution that some regulations should stay in place even with high vaccination rates.

Thank you, George and enjoy your weekend!

I must credit technology for helping us feel a little less isolated in the very dark times of the pandemic, though. It was a comfort to me to be able to video chat my friends and relatives on whatsapp and know that the people I love were ok.
Hope you are having a nice weekend!

bel posticino - anche se il menu non rientra tra i miei preferiti ;-))) ma non riesco a vedere una recinzione, un "fence" in questa immagine....: in ogni caso ti auguro un bellissimo fine settimana, Annalia!!!
2 years ago.
Annalia S. has replied to Gabi Lombardo club
Ma come?! Ce ne sono ben tre! :)) In realtà non sono certo il fulcro principale dell'immagine e sono balaustre (vedi il balconcino tipo Giulietta e Romeo al piano superiore sulla destra?), inferriate (sulla finestra di sinistra, di fronte al balconcino) e la ringhiera della terrazza che si intravede sullo sfondo.
Sono sicura che troveresti qualcosa che ti piace. Oltre alle pietanze più gettonate che ho menzionato nel commento a Herb ci sono anche cose come "i capei del prete", i "Casunziei", una gran varietà di formaggi locali, i fagioli di Lamon, le "tegoline" (fagiolini verdi in umido), dolci preparati con il miele locale, insomma ce n'è per un pò per tutti i gusti. Grande assente il pesce, salvo le trote, ma ovviamente qui siamo lontani dal mare.
Buon fine settimana anche a te, Gabi!

I think you are right, Henri. Even though Belluno is not far from the border with Austria, the old architecture is mostly influenced by Venice and the cultural milieu is very Italian.

Un callejón sin tráfico bien aprovechado y la foto da cuenta de ello con detalle.
Supongo que otras terrazas de hostería pagarán un canon al ayuntamiento según el espacio ocupado, lo cual podría provocar alguna diferencia si Moretto no pagara nada.
HFF Annalia y que tengas buen fin de semana.

Annalia S. has replied to José Manuel Polo club
El gobierno ha suspendido todos estos impuestos y pagos mientras dure la pandemia, precisamente para permitir a restaurantes como "El Moretto", que no tiene jardín a su interior, de ofrecer la posibilidad de comer al aire abierto a sus patrones y facilitar otros que tienen espacios fuera para los que normalmente pagarían un impuesto.
Gracias por tu visita, José y que lo pases bien este fin de semana!
