Il Gallo della Checca - Ranzo (IM)

Il Gallo della Checca, a truffle restaurant with its own Tartufaia as well as an osteria and wine shop since 1986, is located in Ranzo, a small inland Ligurian village on the border with Piedmont. One does not arrive here by accident, but because of the gastronomic value of the address, which is certainly worth a special detour.

Cà Mentin - Revigliasco (TO)











Cà Mentin restaurant is located in Revigliasco, on the Turin hills, housed in an old farmhouse used for horse breeding.
The owner and Chef Enzo Gola, a great horse riding enthusiast, dedicated the name of the restaurant to his grandfather Clemente, nicknamed Mentin, who bought the house in 1890.


The large dining room, in which rustic and modern elements coexist in harmony, is located on the upper floor, introduced by a work by the artist Mauro Benetti at the arrival of the staircase.

The quality of the raw material is pursued without compromise: some ingredients are so precious "of them" that the intervention of the Chef can only be limited to satisfying their goodness with minimal intervention.

Thanks to Enzo Gola's "passionate" wine making choices, we drank in an amazing way, discovering niche products that alone would be worth the trip for a tasting.
