Trattoria Cavallo
About
Trattoria Cavallo, nestled in the picturesque village of Scipione Ponte in Salsomaggiore Terme (PR), is a family‑run culinary gem that has been delighting locals and visitors alike since 1973. The restaurant showcases a warm, welcoming atmosphere where traditional Emilian dishes—such as Tortelli alla parmigiana, Brasato di cavallo, and the celebrated Picola di cavallo—are prepared from fresh, homemade ingredients. In the evenings, a famous stanza of the community, the "Tortafritteria," offers its signature fried dough in five flavors alongside local cured meats, cheese, and wine. Guests can also enjoy the bar, which opens from early morning to midnight, and a lovely outdoor veranda that seats an additional 40 patrons during the warmer months. The Trattoria’s long history, coupled with its commitment to authenticity and excellent service, makes it an essential culinary stop for anyone exploring the Emilia‑Romagna region.
