OSTERIA FRANCESCANA – Resturant in Modena, Italy

OSTERIA FRANCESCANA

TWELVE TABLES IN THE HEART OF MODENA

Italian hospitality is in the details, the ironed tablecloths and the polished silver.
It is an ensemble of gestures that define a way of life. The table is where the journey begins.

ITALIAN CULINARY TRADITIONS
SEEN FROM TEN KILOMETERS AWAY

Our kitchen is not a list of ingredients or demonstration of technical abilities. It is a narration of the Italian landscape and our passions.
Cooking is a collision of ideas, techniques, and cultures. It is not mathematical. It is emotional.

ARTWORK IS A LANDSCAPE OF IDEAS

Every object reveals a layer of meaning. Contemporary art is an inspiration, a guide and a muse.
From Maurizio Cattelan to Damien Hirst to Duane Hanson, art is an invitation to discover.
