If you are looking for something to take home from Bologna may I recommend Paolo Atti & Figli’s homemade Ragu Bolognese? You can also find another very good one at Tamburini a half block away.

Paolo Atti’s Budino di Minerbio, an elegant rice pudding sunk into a pool of rich caramel. 

The wonderful old phone at Paolo Atti, I especially love the black electrical tape on the receiver.
