Bologna is often touted to be the food capital of Italy. But we found Modena, Bologna's lesser known and smaller neighbor, to be the real food capital. After all, the world's best restaurant (Osteria Francescana) and the world's best chef (Massimo Bottura) are based in Modena, and this is where tortellini were invented and where parmesan cheese and aceto balsamico are carefully curated.
Modena is a small, charming and tranquil city in the heart of Italy's Emilia-Romagna region. We recently spent a month living here - exploring, discovering and indulging in the irresistible local cuisine.
We visited a local dairy to see how parmesan cheese is made, we learned how to make tortellini from scratch AND we discovered a surprising tradition around Modena’s liquid gold “aceto balsamico” . We also found a new favorite snack, the gnocco fritto.

About Us
We’re Emre and Maia. Our videos feature local, authentic, and immersive experiences in Europe. We love to engage with people in their own language, while we spend a gap year being curious about everything! We’re passionate about travel and food and have been to 44 countries with five passports between us! Now we’re in Southern Europe — Italy, France, and Spain — where we dedicate a month to each stay. Longing for simplicity and freedom, we put our remaining possessions in storage, and set out with one suitcase and one carry-on each. Our slow travel mindset works whether you have a few days or a whole year.
