ASIAGO


countryside in Altopianocheese shop of choiceMmmm! cheese!
Today I went up the mountain to buy cheese. I went to Asiago, a 68 Km round trip from Bassano. I returned with 5 Kg of some really good cheese and mascarpone. Luisa's uncle Rodolfo recommended the place, Caseficio Pennar. He also taught me the word, "malga", which is a type of Altopiano cow stable. There are many cow pastures up in these mountains. It's so beautiful up there. And the descent is absolutely thrilling. I listened to Stevie Wonder on the way down today, becoming ever more confident.
