1. Pizzeria Ristorante La Mimosa $ - $$

Loc. Baselica, 153, 43043 Borgo val di Taro, Italy Tel. Loc. 0525 98475

Our most favourite restaurant is Pizzeria La Mimosa, 5 kmtrs from our house. Firmly attached to the church of Baselica. Simple, but honest and delicious regional kitchen, tipical for the Valtaro area. Meet the very friendly owners (son Ivan who makes the pizza's, mama Franca, who is taking care of the guests and grandmother Aurelia, in the kitchen, cooking the delicious dishes). They are famous for their stone-oven pizza's. If you do not want to eat pizza but want to try Aurelia's authentic cooking ask for "ristorante" and enjoy their daily fresh dishes (slow cooking). Familiar atmosphere. The prices are good, you can eat a full meal with entrance, main dish and desert, with water, wine and coffee for less than 30 euro's per person.

Pizza around 6 -8 euro's, pastas from 8-15 euro's, Main coarses from 10-15 euro's .......Highly recommended by the owners (and gourmands) of Casa del Porticato.

They have been specially honoured by the mayor of Borgo val di Taro, after starring in a regional cooking show with their excellent and pricewinning regional dishes on italian television (Rai 1). Honoured with special thanks for their contribution to the worlds recognition of the tipical regional Valtaro cuisine and slow food.

Franca e Aurelia, applaudite dal Consiglio Comunale: in nome della buona cucina

Franca e Aurelia, le due anime del ristorante "La Mimosa" di Baselica, dopo i successi televisivi della "Prova del Cuoco", sono state invitate e accolte dall'intero consiglio comunale di Borgotaro. Che ha riservato loro una serie di meritati ringraziamenti, per aver portato all'attenzione del grande pubblico, con grande capacità, la bontà della nostra cucina.

Partire da Milano, ad un certo punto della propria vita, della propria avviata carriera, lasciare tutto e rilevare un ristorante. A Baselica, un'antica frazione di Borgotaro, in mezzo ai boschi dei funghi; da dove, tanti anni prima, la propria famiglia era partita. Rilevare un ristorante e, cosa non facile, farlo funzionare a dovere. Con una bella cucina a base di piatti tipici, con un'accoglienza sempre familiare. Con il buon gusto del buon cibo. Passano gli anni, passano tante fatiche e arrivano le soddisfazioni: fino alla TV, fino a disputare alcune sfide, vincenti, alla trasmissione "La Prova del Cuoco", su RAI 1. E, nello stesso tempo, avendo così l'onore di portare in tutto il mondo, nel modo migliore, il nome della cucina tipica della Valtaro.

E' per questo motivo, soprattutto per questo, che il Consiglio Comunale di Borgotaro ha voluto tributare il giusto riconoscimento a Franca e a sua madre Aurelia, le due anime del ristorante Mimosa di Baselica. Lo ha fatto con le parole, con le congratulazioni pubbliche; lo ha fatto con un lungo meritato applauso, della maggioranza e della minoranza. Insieme.
