Can it really be 20 years ago that La Galera in Fornaci di Barga opens its doors for the first time ?
Apparently so but something seems to be happening with time … is it speeding up ?
There is now a whole new generation of people caring about La Galera and its position in the community and above all caring about its direction and its new clientèle.
As you can hear in the conversation below with the new guiding hand behind the new venture, Giulio Turriani, changes are afoot.
Yes, they do serve hamburgers with their beer but hamburgers made from local meat and not with chips or tomato sauce – their own special mustard and tomatoes are offered instead.
The lighting is different, there are no gaming machines, it feels relaxing the moment you enter and above all – live music is on offer – quality live music.
This evening, (and every Sunday evening) in collaboration with the Barga Jazz Club, the Jazz Prisoners were on stage.
A rolling constant change of musicians but all with one thing in common – quality jazz pulsing in their veins.

Good to see you back Keane
