Harry’s Piccolo is a two-starred restaurant in Trieste, Italy. Carter and I arrived a couple of days early for our YPO 2024 Supercar trip, touring the Grand Lakes of Northern Italy. Part of the former Austro-Hungarian Empire, Trieste was the only seaport with access to the former empire. It’s known as a key trade port for coffee; in fact, Italian coffee culture started here, and it’s home to Lavazza, the famous Italian coffee brand. The city is also a deep port, and cruise ships were docking across the street from our hotel. The city also has a unique geological feature that funnels winds from the surrounding mountains into the town and eventually the sea. Winds in excess of 100 mph are not uncommon, and we experienced a few this evening.
