For Sure go to Bologna ! Most people pass this city, but the center is very
nice and it is the FOOD city of Italia, with a lot of good and cheap
restaurants !!

Hotels in bologna are extremely expensive and frequently full, parking
is impossible on the street, and €25 in agarage overnight. the
restaurants are booked well in advance, and the good ones are not
listed in R.Stevens, so hard to find. Anyway, all the restaurants
serve is tortellini.

I would recommend staying in florence and pisa instead. much more
recognizable on your BTDT list.

come on guys, this has got to be a troll.

I've stayed several times in an inexpensive hotel called the Minerva
in central Bologna. Not at all fancy, but very convenient.

As far as the restaurants, you've got to be joking.

Barbara,
We have trained down to Bologna for lunch several times in the past, and
have gone to highly recommended places -- and have always been disappointed.
Any suggestions? It would be nice to get an occasional really nice break
from the " regularity" of Venetian places.

The Veronelli 'Guide' lists 6 restaurants in Bologna. In the past I
have found their recommendations to be good (the few times we have used
them). The site is in Italian, and since we don't speak Italian it
takes a lot of fussing for us to decipher the guide. I assume you will
have no trouble! Unfortunately the Veronelli site has been recently
redone and it now requires a username/pssword (sigh, what is it with
this trend). Let us know if you are familiar with anywhere in the
guide, somebody on another list recommended the guide as reliable.

I missed that, but once I saw you had to register my interest went away
temporarily. You used to be able to browse the restaurant reviews
without any sort of registration. Perhaps you still can somehow, but my
Italian is certainly not up to negotiating that web site very well. ne
of my old URL's for the site does not seem to work anymo
