You want an address for eat low cost and at the same time taste the flavors of the local tradition of Verona? In this area the custom has it mid-morning snack do it with a good glass of white wine and a small sandwich.
The latter stuffed with sopressa or even better with one slice of cotechino lying on a veil of mashed potato. This custom is still in vogue among older people and there are some really characteristic places where this ritual is observed every day by a loyal clientele.
One of these is located a stone's throw from piazza Erbe but in a street absolutely off the tourist trail, it is theOsteria Le Petarine in via San Mamaso 6. The attendance that you will find there is very folkloric, starting from the manager himself who in all probability you will find screaming while exchanging with the patrons, heated opinions about the results of the match or the politician on duty.
Don't be scared and go inside. In addition to sandwiches with a good wine to be enjoyed strictly standing, or even better sitting on the wooden bench at the side of the road, you can have lunch sitting in the internal room with a few cheap and absolutely homemade dishes according to the proposals of the day written on the blackboard at the entrance. A lunch that will not disappoint you neither in substance nor in price, and which in addition will make you experience an atmosphere of authentic veronesity.
