今期我地就分享下喺灣區生活嘅衣食住行同玩，想知灣區生活係點，值唔值得留低，就一定要聽下啦。我地主要傾下對灣區嘅生活觀感，其中覺得一定要寫低分享嘅餐廳就有呢幾間：台山風味餐廳（三藩市唐人街），皇帝湯（Oakland唐人街），美食坊（San Leandro，英文名Asian Fusion），西貢漁港（El Cerrito），北方佳香（Berkeley），家家樂燒味（三藩市，英文名Do Eat）。好唔好食純粹個人感覺，冇廣告，如果覺得唔好味我地唔負責。當然都有分享過我地唔鍾意嘅餐廳，但係就唔開名啦，都係戈句，各人口味唔同

Storia dell’osteria del sole di Bologna

L’Italia è un Paese famoso soprattutto per la sua cucina e la sua arte ma in pochi conoscono la storia dell’Osteria del sole. È il 1465 e a Bologna già si vocifera che presto apriranno una nuova osteria nel centro della città.  La sua storia quindi risale al 1465, quando venne fondata come locanda per i viaggiatori in transito. Nel corso dei secoli, è diventata una tappa obbligata per chi visita la città di Bologna, attirando turisti e locali con la sua tradizione e l'atmosfera accogliente.


Un’osteria amata dagli scrittori

A vicolo Ranocchi, tra via Orefici e Pescherie Vecchie, nella parte più suggestiva della città, viene aperta quindi l’osteria del sole e funziona già da subito  a pieno regime: diventa ben presto un’osteria importante e conosciuta a tal punto che nel 1712 Giuseppe Maria Mitelli nel gioco delle osterie di Bologna (molto simile al famoso gioco dell’oca) raffigura per l’appunto molte osterie (59 osterie in tutto) e quella  del Sole occupa la penultima casella.
Nel 1879, è il poeta italiano Giovanni Pascoli, che viene arrestato proprio dentro l’Osteria del Sole con l’accusa di aver aderito alle idee socialiste. Nel corso degli anni, l'Osteria del Sole è diventata una meta culturale, ospitando artisti e scrittori famosi come Giosuè Carducci, Ugo Foscolo, e Giorgio Bassani. La sua fama è cresciuta anche grazie alla sua presenza in alcune opere letterarie come il romanzo "Il Barone Rampante" di Italo Calvino. L'osteria ha anche una lunga tradizione di accogliere i pellegrini in cammino verso Santiago di Compostela. Nel Medioevo infatti era una delle tappe obbligate per i pellegrini che attraversavano l’Appenino.

Gli attuali gestori sono la famiglia Spolaore e la storia di come loro zio sia entrato in possesso dell’osteria è altrettanto interessante e curiosa:  nel 1940 lo zio Aldo Canazza, è ciclista affermato e arriva a Bologna per correre la gara chiamata “cronometro” nei Giardini Margherita.

#231  N3-2 〜うえに 例文！について

こんにちは！
Japanese daily life podcast のAtsushiです。
このPodcastは、日本語を楽しく勉強しているみなさんに向けたPodcastです。


今日は月見、について話します。
月見は日本の風習の1つです。

実際、今の時代では、ゆっくり時間をとって、月を見ながら団子を食べる、というようなことはしないと思います。

もともとは中国から伝わっています。
この風習が800年代に日本に伝わりました。

当時は貴族が行うようなイベントで、ふつうの、一般の人にはなじみはありませんでした。

江戸時代、月見が一般的になった時には、芋煮を食べることが多かったそうです。

そのあと、だんごを供えるように変化して、今にいたります。

はじめにも言いましたが、この時期の満月の時に、みんなで集まって月を見ながらだんごを食べる、ということは今はしません。

でもこの時期はスーパーなどでは、月見団子が売っていたりします。

おもしろいのは、マクドナルドが月見バーガーというハンバーガーを毎年販売しています。目玉焼きを挟んだハンバーガーですが、人気があります。

みなさんの国では、この時期、なにかおもしろい風習はありますか？

ぜひ、オンラインレッスンでお話しましょう！
お待ちしています！

今回も最後まで聞いていただき、ありがとうございます！
