Bocca Buona

Literally meaning 'the good mouth', this osteria is a neighborhood jem. Classic, yet modern, this place boasts a beautiful entrance, outdoor patio, and rustic indoor seating. But their food speaks for itself:

Fried fiori di zucca (fried squash blossoms) stuffed with rabbit

Tomato and burrata phyllo dough torte


Tagliarin, or tajarin, a Bra specialty- they are basically smaller, thinner versions of tagliatelle. This pasta is always fresh, never reconstituted from a dry format.



Another Braidese specialty. These gnocchi ROCK. You can find them at pretty much any food establishment in the area. Homemade, pillowy gnocchi either in a Stilton or Castelmagno sauce (both are a blue cheese).
