ristorazione — Cesenatico · Emilia-Romagna
In Cesenatico, where the Romagna seafront becomes an everyday backdrop and the season is not just summer, a kiosk on Viale Roma has carried forward the tradition of artisan piadina romagnola since 1989. An address that has stayed true to itself, recognisable among the longest-standing in town.
Opened in 1989, Chiosco Piadina da Rina is among the longest-running establishments in Cesenatico: over thirty years in which generations of regulars have crossed the same threshold. Far from chains and standardised formats, as its most loyal customers recall, it has chosen to remain exactly what it always was: a place to eat well, at honest prices, with no compromises.
Under the awning or at the outdoor tables, you sit down to a piadina filled with squacquerone, salsiccia romagnola (Romagna-style pork sausage), or wild field herbs: ingredients drawn from the local territory, chosen to stay true to a cuisine that needs no embellishment. The menu also includes crescioni and rotoli, with options for those who prefer whole-wheat doughs made with olive oil.
In the kitchen — or rather, at the griddle — every piadina is made to order: the classic dough of flour, water, salt, lard, and yeast is rolled out by hand and cooked on the griddle in front of those waiting. It is a gesture that cannot be delegated or rushed, and one that has been repeated unchanged in Cesenatico for over thirty-five years.
On this page you will find the full menu with all the fillings, seasonal opening hours, and directions to reach the kiosk on Viale Roma, at the corner of Viale Cesare Abba.
