Ingredients:
- The Italian city of love: Verona;
- A famous balcony;
- The story of two young “star-crossed” lovers;
Recipe:
- In a winter sunny day, wander around the lovely city of Verona and discover its beautiful squares with churches and monuments, the world famous Arena, the river Adige and the ancient bridges connecting the two banks;
- If you stop for a moment it won’t be hard for you to imagine Romeo chatting with his friends Mercutio and Benvolio in one of the narrow paved streets, or the Capulet ball taking place in one of the ancient buildings;
- Follow the signs for “Casa di Giulietta” (Juliet’s home) and passed the walls where today lovers from around the world write their names, you’ll see the famous balcony and for sure the first thing to come to your mind will be: “O Romeo, Romeo, wherefore art thou Romeo?”
- And then suddenly, under a big tree you’ll notice her: the lovely and young Juliet is there, probably still waiting for her Romeo to come to save her…
Following an old legend, touching Juliet’s right breast brings good luck… not a gentlemanly thing to do, though!
