Li Jalantuùmene - Monte Sant'Angelo (FG)

Li Jalantuùmene restaurant overlooks the characteristic Piazza de' Galganis, a sixteenth-century gem in the heart of the historic center of Monte Sant'Angelo, in the heart of the Gargano Park. The external walls with portions of light stone and the clean lines of the building integrate perfectly with the surrounding whiteness of the Junno district. The name of the restaurant, which in dialect means "The Gentlemen", is a true declaration of intent: to recall the elegance, honesty and elegance of times gone by, applying them to hospitality and service. Once you cross the threshold, the restaurant reveals its nature as a "home" characterized by a romantic and intimate atmosphere. Gegè Mangano is undoubtedly one of the most representative and charismatic chefs of Puglia, considered a true gastronomic ambassador of the Gargano.

[b:ur] - Milano











The restaurant [b: ur] is located in Milan in the central Ticinese area, heralded by an entrance with a red door.His name is the phonetic transcription of the surname of Chef Eugenio Boer, which in Dutch means "man of the Earth", "Farmer".


Once inside, you'll be struck by the personality of the place, designed by Mario Abruzzese, architect of kick.office: the gold-colored carpeting is a tribute to the typical furnishings of the Great North, walls and ceilings are painted Prussian blue, except for a portion covered in wallpaper with references to Delft ceramics and the East India Company, the support furniture and the central column-mobile bar recall the style in vogue in the Fifties. The large full-wall windows overlooking the street are decorated with long curtains.


Visiting the [b:ur] is impossible not to be impressed and fascinated by the strong personal imprint of the Chef that you breathe there. Every detail is designed for this purpose and contributes to enhance it, starting from the service that moves orchestrated with perfect timing and manners by Carlotta Perilli, a delightful hostess.
We experienced a whimsical, cultured and imaginative cuisine, rich in ideas and citations that denote a deep knowledge, even historical, of the subject.

Creativity and a great sense of combinations represent the most "Mediterranean" aspect, while a masterly technique, almost Teutonic, constitutes the Nordic soul: Eugenio Boer is in fact the compendium in the same person of two almost antithetical worlds and mentalities that in him merge and become enrichment.

What about the dishes? After the lockdown, here you will experience an excellent menu of Italian products only: a hymn to rebirth, rich, stimulating and erudite, with the aim of paying homage to some of the great traditional recipes and at the same time supporting small producers, a pleasure for the eyes and the palate.
