Today we’re off to Bologna with travel and culture writer Alex Sakalis. The capital of Emilia-Romagna is nicknamed la dotta (the learned) for its university, the oldest in Europe; la rossa (the red) for both the colour of its buildings and its political leanings; and la grassa (the fat) for its gluttonous cuisine. Join us on a tour of pretty piazzas, porticoed streets and pasta dishes as we uncover the city’s distinct identity, rich culinary heritage and surprising jazz pedigree.
