It is said that at the beginning of the twentieth century at the base of the homonymous bell tower "Il Campano" there was a grocery store, later evolved in the post-war period in gastronomy and shortly after in the "Antica Trattoria Il Campano" until today.
Trattoria since then very popular for the genuineness and abundance of traditional dishes, both from Pisa and from university professors and students.
I remind those who do not know that the University of Pisa is one of the oldest in Italy and Europe, and together with the other two university institutions, the Scuola Normale Superiore and the Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna are pride and pride for the city of Pisa.
It seems that to give the name "Il Campano" to the Trattoria were just the university students who were going to eat us, because right at the top of the tower the bell tolled to mark the time of the lessons while in the base of the tower who had no lesson , savored with taste a typical dish of the tradition as pappa al pomodoro, ribollita, Tuscan soups, maltagliati, tortelli, meat in salmì ....
