My name is Heidi Børsholt-Simonsen, I am from Copenhagen/Denmark and the woman behind A Presto, which was the first term I learned as a newcomer to Italy/Ferrara. "See you soon".
Moving to a new country and at the same time finding a way to create new relationships and a working life, you can very well imagine. Reality is just so much more unpredictable and exciting. Fortunately!
And no, I had not imagined that I would start my own business and get local Italians involved, but the support, warmth and help, from so many locals, has made my dream possible - and so much more!
With a presto, I can finally give something back to 'my' city, Ferrara and the very lovely inhabitants called Ferrarese.
WHEN PASSION BECOMES AMBITION
Ferrara is a relatively unknown gem of a city. The atmosphere, the people, the beauty, the aromas, the ingredients, the food, the wine and the joy of life here, have become my true passion. Therefore I have also made it my mission to spread the knowledge of this magnificent city and the rich tasty regional cuisine that even Italians travel here for.
All travelers are welcome and if you, like me, are fond of lovable people, beauty, charm, great architecture, history, culture and FOOD, Ferrara is the city to visit!
I guarantee you a city and dining experience you will rarely forget!
