Osteria
An osteria (, plural ''osterie'') in Italy was originally a place serving wine and simple food. Lately, the emphasis has shifted to the food, but menus tend to be short, with the emphasis on local specialities such as pasta and grilled meat or fish, often served at shared tables. Osterie tend to be cheap, and they also focus on after work and evening refreshment. Osterie vary greatly in practice: some only serve drinks and clients are allowed to bring in their own food, and some have retained a predominantly male clientele whilst others have reached out to students and young professionals. Some provide music and other entertainment. Similar to osterie are ''bottiglierie'', where customers can take a bottle or flask to be re-filled from a barrel, and '' enoteche'' which generally pride themselves on the range and quality of their wine. In Emilia-Romagna are located three of the oldest Italian ''osterie'': "Osteria del Sole" and " Osteria del Cappello" in Bologna, and "Osteria al ...

Osteria Del Cappello
The "Osteria Del Cappello" (lit. Inn of the Hat) or "Al Cappello Rosso" (lit. to the Red Hat) is an osteria and it is one of the oldest inns in Bologna in Italy, and it is still active today as a hotel and as a restaurant serving food and drinks. It is located in Via de’ Fusari, near Piazza Maggiore. History The Bolognese historical archives, mention a "Hosteria del Cappello" in 1375. This Hosteria could have changed location many times until 1700. In fact the locations were not property of the host and, often, the symbol of the inn remained the same even though its location had changed. The current location of the Hostaria dates back to 1652, when host Domenico Simoncini decided to place the inn in Via de’ Fusari. The name comes from the sign: almost any kind of object, typically bells, keys, crowns, and hats (like in this case) could appear on a sign of an Italian tavern. The hat of this Osteria, decorated with ribbons, was clearly linked to the Church, since it could repre ...

Trattoria
A ''trattoria'' (plural: ''trattorie'') is an Italian-style eating establishment that is generally much less formal than a '' ristorante'', but more formal than an '' osteria''. A ''trattoria'' rooted in tradition may typically provide no printed menu, casual service, wine sold by the decanter rather than the bottle, and low prices, with an emphasis on a steady clientele rather than on '' haute cuisine''. Food tends to be modest but plentiful, mostly following regional and local recipes, sometimes even served family-style, at common tables. This homely tradition has waned in recent decades. Many ''trattorie'' have taken on some of the trappings of a ''ristorante'', providing relatively few concessions to the old rustic and familial style. The name ''trattoria'' has also been adopted by some high-level restaurants. Optionally, ''trattoria'' food could be bought in containers to be taken home. Etymologically, the word is cognate with the French term ''traiteur'' (a caterer p ...

Pergola Vignata Giumaglio - Osteria Dal Nito 2
A pergola is most commonly an outdoor garden feature forming a shaded walkway, passageway, or sitting area of vertical posts or pillars that usually support cross-beams and a sturdy open lattice, often upon which woody vines are trained. The origin of the word is the Late Latin ''pergula'', referring to a projecting eave. As a type of gazebo, it also may be an extension of a building or serve as protection for an open terrace or a link between pavilions. They are different from green tunnels, with a green tunnel being a type of road under a canopy of trees. Pergolas are sometimes confused with "arbors," as the terms are used interchangeably. Generally, an "arbor" is regarded as wooden bench seats with a roof, usually enclosed by lattice panels forming a framework for climbing plants; in evangelical Christianity, brush arbor revivals occur under such structures. A pergola, on the other hand, is a much larger and more open structure. Normally, a pergola does not include inte ...

Enoteca (plural: ''Enoteche'') is an Italian word that is derived from the Greek word Οινοθήκη, which literally means "wine repository" (from ''Oeno/Eno-'' Οινός "wine", and ''teca'' Θήκη, "receptacle, case, box"), but it is used to describe a special type of local or regional wine shop that originated in Italy.J. Robinson (ed), ''"The Oxford Companion to Wine"'', Third Edition, p 255, Oxford University Press 2006, The concept of an ''enoteca'' has also spread to some other countries. A genuine enoteca is primarily directed at giving visitors or tourists the possibility to taste these wines at a reasonable price and possibly to buy them.Virbila, S. Irene"Tasting the Fruit Of the Italian Vine" ''The New York Times'', June 19, 1988. Accessed January 15, 2008. "Though the term enoteca usually denotes a wine store, it sometimes means a wine bar (usually part of the store) where the wandering oenophile can explore Italian vintages from just one region or from all ov ...

Painting By Alexander Laureus Called Roman Osteria, 1820
Painting is the practice of applying paint, pigment, color or other medium to a solid surface (called the "matrix" or "support"). The medium is commonly applied to the base with a brush, but other implements, such as knives, sponges, and airbrushes, can be used. In art, the term ''painting ''describes both the act and the result of the action (the final work is called "a painting"). The support for paintings includes such surfaces as walls, paper, canvas, wood, glass, lacquer, pottery, leaf, copper and concrete, and the painting may incorporate multiple other materials, including sand, clay, paper, plaster, gold leaf, and even whole objects. Painting is an important form in the visual arts, bringing in elements such as drawing, composition, gesture (as in gestural painting), narration (as in narrative art), and abstraction (as in abstract art). Paintings can be naturalistic and representational (as in still life and landscape painting), photographic, abstract, narrative, ...
