About Us

A family business

four generations of restaurateurs deeply linked to Piacenza and its traditions.

In Pier’s family, catering has always been a family business: from an early age he decides to devote himself to another professional career, crowning his desire to become a commercial pilot.
He always keeps alive his desire to open his own place despite his travel around the world. In 1993 he meets Germana, the flight attendant who will become his wife.

Their lives are full and fulfilled, but Pier’s desire is shared by Germana and finally in 2018 the BARZAC (acronym of the two surnames) is opened in Milan, a few steps from the Central Station.

The Barzac cured meats come from a historic producer in Alseno, who follows the entire process: from breeding, to slaughtering, to stuffing.
