Pordenone Voyage Tips and guide

Contents

Even with measurements of only 38 km², Pordenone seems larger than it really is and packs in over 50,000 residents. The primary interest in Pordenone by Americans is due to the city's close proximity to Aviano Air Base and Pordenone's more numerous bars, restaurants, hotels, shops, and attractions than in the town of Aviano.

• Casa Bianca, Viale San Giorgio 19, Aviano (close to Aviano Air Base, in the nearby village of Aviano, some 20 minutes away by car), ☏ +39 0434 661532. Moderately cheap restaurant. Serves great lunch and dinner menu items. Be sure to try the "Penne Carbonara" or the "Pizza Carbonara" (a cheese pizza with different cheeses, white Italian sauce, bacon, and a sunnyside up egg in the middle". Sounds a bit weird, but definitely worth the try. A whole pie is usually sufficient for one person as it is very thin.) The staff is extremely friendly and they all speak English.
