restaurants
No, I had no ideia there were so many veg restaurants and stores here in Torino. I\'ve been making my food everyday at home :|
The store is called Cooperativa In contro, it\'s in Via Principi d\'Acaja 45; it has all kinds of organic food, bread, fresh vegetables, vegan products, fair trade, eco cleaning.. It\'s a bit cheaper than mezzaluna because it has more variety but those you told me must be better.
Grazie mille for all the information!! |

Thank you a lot!
Thank you!
I also like Lisbon a lot but I never went to that restaurant, maybe when I come back ^^
I study near Bairro Alto, but I usually lunch at another health store that has something like an italian mensa but in a vegetarian/naturist way :)
Turin is also a beautiful city, some of the most beautiful I've ever been/seen really!
I should have talked to you before because it seems like I've been spending a lot of money. I also found another one (I already put in the Turin's health stores here on the site) that is bigger than mezzaluna near pallagiustiza, have you ever been there?
Grazie mille!
Ciao:) |

Torino's veg stores
Hello Catarina. I read you're from Lisbon, great city, I visited it last July (and had a wonderful treat at Terra restaurant, in Barrio Alto). Yes, Mezzaluna is really expensive, I do agree! To save some money, you can go to organic supermarket chains such as Naturaś (there is one in Corso Moncalieri, next to Ponte Isabella) and Biobottega (at Le Gru Department Store and a larger one, called Iperbiottega in corso Regina Margherita/via Pietro Cossa, both very far from the city centre, though). Check their websites to see where they are (www.naturasi.it). Another good store is Dalla Terra Al Cielo, in Corso Tortona 16 next to Corso Belgio (this is my favourite one, they also have a deli - from the city centre, take tram no. 15 and get off at the first stop in corso Belgio). For most common organic food, such as wholewheat pasta and flour, brown rice, beans, chickpeas, lentils, tomato sauces, dried fruits and seeds, sugarfree jams, juices and biscuits, you can find them in every supermarket (all have their own organic product line, such as Coop's "bio-logici" or GS "Bio"). For organic vegetables and fruits, go to "Il frutto permesso", via Napione 24, near Piazza Vittorio. Unfortunately they also seel meat, but they have some good bargains on vegetables. Hope this helps! If you need any more infos, just let me know! |

Torino's vegetarian stores
Hello, I'm living in Torino since October but I only know 2 stores where to buy veg food. Mezzaluna is really expensive, do you know where to buy cheaper veg food?
Ciao! |
