It was convenient to grab a bite to eat after shopping in town and before taking a little rest before going back out again.

Among the many enotecas of Bergamo, Cozzi deserves special mention. Founded in 1848, the Vineria…read morestill has many of its original fittings, and the owner Simona takes pride in keeping things as they are. Step inside through the modest but pretty frontage, and you are in a timeless place, where the ancient hand carved shelves groan with wine and the old marble counter is topped with delicacies to nibble upon as you enjoy your glass of wine. To the rear lies a tiny internal dining room where you can take a more substantial meal, and on through here is a courtyard with a few more tables. Everything is beautifully laid out in an exceptionally tasteful manner. The dining aspect of Cozzi's has taken on a more serious aspect in recent years, and today it can lay claim to a place among the top destinations in the Citta Alta. Inventive cookery based on local products could offer you dishes such as: Tart of Potato, Honey, Goats Cheese and Chestnuts; Rice cooked in Barolo with Radicchio; Lamb cutlets with winter ratatouille; and red fruit meringues with white chocolate. Lunch is an excellent option at Cozzi's, as from Mon-Fri only they offer a 25% discount off their menu prices.

The weather was lovely and views awesome. The food service was quick. Two entree's bottle of local wine, and dessert for less than 50 euros.

We came here around siesta time, so when we finished eating, we've realised that no one else is here, not counting us, an owner lady and some really old people reading newspapers. And we still felt welcomed! Interior is really comfy - dark wooden tables and chairs, big bar, where you can drink your espresso and leave, newspapers, old wine bottles, some photos on the walls and a lot of people. True Italian vibes. Menu is in Italian or English. They have variety of Italian goods here - pasta, pizza, main dishes, everything is really tasty and in good prices! We've decided to take a fixed menu for, as I recall, 14 euros, with pasta, main dish and a wine/coffee and water. I don't remember what we ordered exactly but I think I've had something similar to ravioli with ragu and bacon, ahhhhhhh, amazing!!! Main dish was simply big amount of meat with fries or mashed potatoes, nothing too crazy, but tasty as well. Wine - omnomnom. Food is damn good and the whole place is so cute. One of the old guys smiled at me and said "cin cin" when I was drinking my wine. The owner of this place, nice lady, was speaking only Italian, but we somehow managed to talk with her - Italian gestures, "molto bene" and "perfetto" were enough to communicate and leave big smiles on our faces. Grazie mille!

Indoors, there are barely two dozen covers, crammed back-to-back, the larger tables with bench seating. Rustic is the word. The two waitresses strain to get past their diners. So contact with your fellow beings here is unavoidable. It all adds to the fun and enjoyment. Marissa will tell you what's good on the night, though it is all good, really. Other diners may add their own advice. Locals want to know who you are; visitors swap info in broken Italian. The general clamour is reminiscent of an unruly school dinner hall. Outdoors, they have attempted expansion via a plastic tent which they call the Giardino. Garden it is not! No atmosphere, so don't go there. It's indoors or niente. Two chefs appear to be joined at the hip as they work in full view next to the diners in the small kitchen. They might even shout out to ask you how you want it done. They look on proudly as you tuck in. There is no hiding place in the Tre Torri. There's a choice of 6 Antipasti 8 euros, 4 Primi 8 euros, and 8 Secondi @ 10-12 euros. Desserts are 4 euros. A short but comprehensive Wine List ranges from 12 euros for the local Valcalepio up to 55 euros for a blockbusting Amarone. The first Grappe cost 2,50; the second lot came free. Needless to say, the dishes are all typical Bergamascan, with Casoncelli, Risotto, Polenta, Porcini, Salsicce, Rabbit, Donkey and Gnocchi all featuring. Pasta is hand-made. Polenta is lovingly stirred to longterm perfection. A Stinco di Maiale was perhaps the highlight for me. Others ordered a double helping of the Casoncelli, which could be heard sizzling as they were removed from the oven two metres away. All this conviviality led to one of our Party ordering the Amarone to accompany an enormous communal plate of cheeses. The bottle in question had been untouched on a remote corner top shelf of the room for a long time, and a fellow diner had to climb up and get it down for Marissa. It's that kind of place - one for all and all for one.
