Shopping recommendations:
Verona cuisine belongs to the Veneto cuisine, which is similar to French cuisine and uses cheese and fresh milk. Because it is adjacent to Lake Garda (Lagodi Garda), many dishes use local tomatoes as seasoning. The most traditional Verona dish is beef stew with Peara sauce (Peara is a sauce made from soup, breadcrumbs and roasted Italian Parmesan cheese), accompanied by a lot of black pepper. Others include horse stew, carrots with Bardolino wine rice, etc. If you pass by a dessert shop, don't miss the opportunity to taste Zaleti, TortaSabbiosa and Pandoro (all delicious cakes).
Verona is also a famous wine producing area. The strong and fragrant Bardolino wine, the sweet Chiaretto wine and Lugana wine are all good accompaniments for meals.
