In Bolzano there are several places to eat, and eat well. TO sarentino instead the places shrink, being however a less touristy and smaller place. But certainly there is one that you cannot miss if you are in these parts, it is Bad Rungg.
This typical restaurant it is also a hotel although more known in the area as a restaurant because the food is really good. The environment is welcoming, slightly low lights and different environments where you can find your own corner of peace. As soon as you arrive you will find on the table of the typical bread to cut and break with your hands (this is how it is done here) waiting to eat.
The ladies who work here are dressed in typical clothes and it is not unusual to find ladies even on the street, even if it is not a holiday and it is not Sunday, dressed in traditional clothes. Here they are quite "nationalists". What do you eat at Bad Rungg? The dishes offered are typical and, let me tell you, pesantucci. After all, the peasants here once needed lots of energy and after having spent a day in the fields working these dishes were all in all balanced, they didn't do the hard work we do today.
However the choice is varied starting from Striezl, of which we have already spoken, both dry and in broth, up to dumplings also these in broth or with sauerkraut up to roe, definitely delicious. After eating the striezl, the gnocchi with mushrooms, presented here in a particular form, and the dumplings with sauerkraut unfortunately I was unable to taste the desserts to my great regret ... they were no longer there. And to say that they were quite tempting with typical South Tyrolean chocolate and poppy seeds. But I tasted the jam, spatial.
The advice is still to try the dumplings that here in South Tyrol they are quite different from those of Trentino, if nothing else you will have a broader vision of the gastronomic culture of this region.
