After having a coffee together, we will leave for a tour that will take us to the murals that are located in the neighborhood. At the end we will meet for a community lunch organized by Caponata on the road, a traveling kitchen that, with a passion for good food and sharing, brings the taste of traditions with a touch of creativity.
