I'd like to visit any local food markets while I'm there (Wed-Mon), and also want to find a kitchen supply store. I don't want anything fancy - when I lived in Bologna, I loved visiting old and dusty shops, crowded with cooking implements from floor to ceiling, everything reasonably priced. Are there shops like this in Turin? Thanks... Fri Oct 17 06:55:45 -0700 2008 10431 Gooseberry 1 4110484 oh, and any store where I could buy Italian vegetable seeds would be great too.

My wife plants her whole garden with his seeds. Also, you must visit Eatily, a short cab ride from centro. Amazing!

Will definitely visit Eataly.

If you want an appointment for a little degustation write me italo.paganotto@tin.it Best Regards Fri Oct 17 10:33:48 -0700 2008 4110476 233202 resistenza
