Officina dei Sapori

Bergamo


Marta and Stefano oversee this welcoming place with its intimate, old-world dining area and fine seafood-dominated menu. Dishes include lobster medallions or pheasant with citrus and thyme. After their six-course tasting menus (divided into meat or fish), you may never want to eat again – but it's a marvellous way to go out.
