In Lev脿, a hamlet of Montecchio Precalcino, the tradition returns with Quajaday, popularly known as 'lo Speo dei Morti' (All Souls' Spit Roast). Organized by the Confraternita della Quaglia to coincide with All Saints' Day, this autumn event celebrates the ancient local custom of spit-roasting. Held at the Palaquaja grounds behind the village church, the festival operates entirely as a takeaway service with advance booking required. The culinary spotlight shines on spit-roasted quail carrying the official De.Co. heritage label, paired with pork cuts, loin, sausages, and traditional 'onta' polenta, complemented by roasted chestnuts and local wine.
