Making others happy and healthy has always been my goal as I run my nonprofit volunteer organization, prepare a perfect plate of handmade pasta in my restaurant, and create meaningful events. Growing up on a farm in Basilicata made me understand how the symbiotic relationship between the local soil, crops, livestock and humans promotes physical and mental well-being.  - Luigi Diotaiuti

The Beginning (Trattoria I Ricchi in Florence)
i Ricchi began as a family home and general store in the village of Cercina, located in Florence, Italy. Umberto Consigli, after building his home and store, added a few dining tables in the back, and his wife Ceaserina would cook for customers. Consigli’s daughter Irma married Biagio Ricchi and successfully grew the business into a trattoria, eventually involving their son, Francesco.

Every Saint needs a miracle; that’s how the Church decides you are a Saint. “Don’t drink the water, drink beer” warned Saint Arnold of Metz , concerned about the dangers of drinking impure water, while the boiled and processed water used for beer was a safer alternative. 

According to the legend he ended a plague when he submerged his crucifix into a brew kettle and persuaded people to drink only beer from that “blessed” kettle. The story of the miracle kettle of beer spread and eventually Arnold was canonized by the Catholic Church for it.  

St. Arnold’s Mussel Bar’ boasts a welcoming, authentic Belgian experience reminiscent of a classic European tavern found in the alleys of Brussels. We carry steaming mussel pots paired with authentic Belgian beer.
