53 owners of historical coffees were awarded on 12th December in the Multipurpose Hall of Confcommercio of Cuneo. The occasion was the presentation of Adriano Restifo’s book “The Charm of the Historic Cafes of Cuneo” which collected curiosities, anecdotes and documents on the places that have passed the 50-year mark. The oldest among the winners: the Caffè Roma in Barge opened since 1771.
An opportunity to discover the Granda province through the flavours of ancient and historic coffee, a nice way to go … without exaggerating with coffee, perhaps enjoying some chat with the owners of these historic shops!
