If you come to Parma you have to have prosciutto and you have to have Parmesan and that is exactly what I did. I ordered a warm panini with a huge amount of prosciutto and melted Parmesan. It was so simple yet so perfect. I accompanied it with a excellent glass of glass of the local sweet 'Malvasia Dolce. This was probably one of the best lunches I had in my entire Italy trip and also one of the cheapest. I finished it off with a tiramisu and an espresso. My favourite part of not only the restaurant but Parma is the lack of tourists. I was the only none Italian in the restaurant and there were practically no tourists in the city. A very welcome change from more touristic areas like Venice and Florence.

Once you walk inside, you immediately feel as if you're in an Irish pub in Ireland. Really cool vibe inside.

They even have a kitchen that makes bar food. I got a cheeseburger!! Although it wasn't gourmet, it was exactly what I was looking for from a bar and was great to nibble on while I was drinking.

The owner Daniele is amazing and super funny, his sandwiches are perfect for a quick lunch and he makes a point of spoiling tourists!
