The Restaurant
Many consider it the most romantic restaurant in Bergamo. Perched atop San Vigilio, overlooking the city, Il Baretto di San Vigilio is a place full of charm. Dining on the panoramic terrace is an experience, but the allure of this venue remains even on gloomy autumn Sundays, when it’s a pleasure to retreat to this cozy living room, with a bit of jazz music, good wine, and a chat with the host, peeking through the windows at the mist enveloping the landscape.
The Restaurateur
Beppe Acquaroli
Beppe Acquaroli, the eclectic patron of Il Baretto di San Vigilio, has always been driven by a strong passion for sourcing the finest products and finding the perfect pairings. He loves good taste so much that he probably couldn’t have chosen any other profession. Attention to detail and the search for delicacies are among his trademarks, such as when, after coffee, he offers a calisson, an almond biscuit from Provence—a refined sweet treat. If that’s not attention to detail, what is?
