Macelleria Bonat In Mezzano

Passing through the fabulous village of Mezzano, I come across this "not-a-butcher's shop," as Luigi calls it, a man as surprising as his products. His dedication and determination to create not just a cured meat but a poem for the palate have repaid his initial efforts, allowing us travelers to discover long-lost flavors and people like him and his wife Simonetta, who possess rare tenacity. I opened the products I bought from you last night with friends. Needless to say, they're excellent, and you'll surely have new travelers who will come to discover you. I hope to see you soon, Claudia and Corrado.

Luigi’s was the highlight of my time in Mezzano. His prepared food is always fresh and delicious. Luigi and his wife Simonetta are so welcoming and so knowledgeable.

A pleasant discovery. Besides the quality of the cured meats, Luigi's courtesy and engaging manner make the purchase a unique experience.

It was an amazing experience to taste the meats and dishes prepared by Luigi and his wife!🥰 Thank you for the wonderful stories with every ham and the kindness with which you welcomed us!🏔️🥩😍

Luigi and his wife are two people with a big heart and passion for what they do. All their production is based on strong, deeply rooted values, and it shows in the aromas, the carefully crafted pairings, and the quality of the ingredients. I recommend stopping by if you're looking for authentic products, and if you're staying at the Hotel Mirabello, I recommend their tasting tour!

My experience at Macelleria Bonat was simply memorable. As soon as you enter, you immediately realize this isn't a normal "shop": Luigi and Simonetta don't simply sell products, they tell stories through food. Luigi, with his infectious passion and in-depth knowledge of raw materials, takes everyone on a journey of authentic flavors and careful selection. His "non-butcher" vision shines through in every product: every cut, every preparation is the result of respect for the product and for those who will enjoy it. Alongside him, Simonetta enriches the experience with a touch of warmth and authenticity: her culinary creations—from home cooking to desserts—perfectly complement the experience. The tasting I enjoyed was a succession of pleasant surprises, where the attention to detail and the quality of the ingredients are evident in every bite.  This is a place where you don't just buy food, you live an experience: Luigi and Simonetta put heart, expertise, and a genuine joy into what they do. If you love unique, authentic products full of personality, this "non-butcher shop" is truly not to be missed.

An extraordinary place! Wonderful owners. Mr. Luigi guided us through the history – his life, Italian traditions, ethical work,… It's worth visiting and listening! And above all, trying the specialties! The flavors you can discover in his products are unique. Thank you!

It's not a butcher's shop. It's a philosophical salon with a refrigerated counter. You enter by chance, you stay by choice. Between a smile, an idea, and a passionate story, time stands still. You can also buy meat.
