“We will be half open and half closed: the restaurant, in the province of Modena, will be operating regularly, the blind lowered instead at the bar, in the Lucca area. We are divided like the church that is located exactly on the border between San Pellegrino in Alpe, in Emilia-Romagna and Castiglione di Garfagnana, in Tuscany: we don’t know if it will still welcome the faithful or not. ” Paolo Marchi Lunardi, owner of the restaurant ‘Da Pacetto’ known in the area as ‘Osteria del Duca’, does not hide the uncertainty on the phone about what will happen to his business tomorrow, when the strictest measures will be taken for the Tuscany. from the ‘orange’ area, to contain infections. For some time he has managed a hotel, bar and restaurant that are in a single building located between the village of the municipality of Frassinoro, in the mountains of Modena, and that of the province of Lucca. San Pellegrino in Alpe, on the Emilian front, at 1,525 meters above sea level, 11 inhabitants in total, is a classic destination for mountain tours or motorcycle tours “, here is the restaurant – explains Marchi Lunardi to ANSA – that in fact, it will remain open regularly and will continue to serve customers, as has been the case since the first refreshment point on the ridge was born, that is, from 1221. Being under the province of Modena, it is still an area ‘yellow’, the current hours are now maintained. I know of many infections in the Modena area, I think it is only a matter of time before they close everything. “
The situation is different, however, for the bar “so unique in all of Italy” whose facilities are divided between Emilia-Romagna and Tuscany: “The machine with which we prepare the coffee – specifies the owner – is in the part on the ground de Castiglione di Garfagnana, the cashier, to pay, is in the space already included in San Pellegrino in Alpe. I do not know very well what rules apply in this case, no one has informed me, I’m sure I will ask for explanations. Even customers They are desperate, they don’t know if they can come for a coffee or not. And I don’t know what to say. I’ll have to keep the bar closed. ” The dilemma also concerns the church of the Emilia-Toscana village, which, like the bar, is exactly on the ridge. “The parish priest has been isolated for a few days due to having contracted the virus,” adds Marchi-, so I don’t think there will be any celebrations. At the moment, there are no infections in San Pellegrino, but the situation in the Modenese area is getting worse. increase and measures were necessary. It is not my field, mind you, but if I have to be honest it is better to close everything than to continue risking “.
