Easter: Origins, Meaning and Special Menu at Restaurant del Ponte

Easter is one of the most cherished holidays around the world, celebrated with religious traditions, symbols of rebirth and of course… good food. At Ristorante del Ponte in Minusio, we want to honor this occasion by offering a special menu that combines tradition and taste.

📜 A little history: the origins of Easter

The word “Passover” comes from the Hebrew word “Pesach,” which means “passage.” In Jewish tradition, it commemorates the liberation of the people of Israel from Egypt.

In Christianity, Easter takes on an even deeper meaning: it celebrates the Resurrection of Jesus Christ, which occurred on the third day after his crucifixion. It is the feast of life, rebirth and hope.

Over time, this anniversary has been enriched with symbols such as:

  • 🐣 eggs, symbol of new life
  • 🐇 the easter bunny, harbinger of fertility
  • 🌸 spring flowers, a symbol of renewal
