Aperitif in Turin
Our evening starts around 07:30 pm : it's aperitif time, a real tradition in Turin, which in the bargain boasts of its invention. It seems that it was just a Turin's inhabitant, Antonio Benedetto Carpano, who invented in 1786 the Vermouth, produced with white wine mixed to an infusion of plants and spices.
Nowadays the aperitif is most of all a habit, even if it has no regular program: it is prepared in the "historical" locals as in the fashionable locals, it can last hours or just a few minutes, it usually consists of a glass of wine or a cocktail.
The aperitif is served together with a buffet which can turn into an improvised dinner; we can find tastes of pasta or risotto, small sandwiches and salty or spicy snacks, the classical chips and also cold cuts and typical kinds of Piemonte's cheese.
