An important novelty
The honorable Barbara Mazzali, regional councilor of Lombardy (Brothers of Italy), commented on the inclusion of the spit from Brescia in the list of traditional agri-food products: “The number of traditional agri-food products recognized by the Lombardy Region has risen to 270: the Brescia spit has been added today!
Great satisfaction
"Needless to say how happy I am, given that I, together with my colleague Massardi, promoted the regional law for the "Enhancement of the Lombard culture and tradition of the Brescian spit and other game-based preparations", which was approved in Council last May. The Region thus promotes the historical, cultural and food and wine value of this dish which is handed down from generation to generation in our area".
The implications from a tourist point of view
“Furthermore, the Brescian spit is also a tourist destination and its absence had a negative impact on the economy as well. I can only be satisfied with the work we have done, together with the mayors of Bresciano, to give this tradition back the place and importance it deserves”.
