Welcome Aperitivo


Wednesday night was the first all-student event sponsored by the Umbra Institute. The venue was Argentina, Perugia's newest restaurant and hip place for an aperitivo, a before-dinner snack with friends that Italians can't do without. Students were feted with a selection of Umbrian and central Italian cheeses, salami and dried sausage (taste that fennel!), and all took place on the terraces built into the Etruscan wall that surrounds this beautiful hilltop city. The students' next appointment is tomorrow's Perugia Nooks & Crannies tour - sign up in the Bartolo building today.
