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. As you cross the threshold of the entrance, you will find yourself immersed in a quaint rustic-elegant style setting, full of curious elements, from the piano to the tiled stove, from the collection of ceramic roosters to vintage and modern racing bicycles, a great passion of Chef and Patron Ugo Vairo.

Da U Titti - Lingueglietta (IM)











The restaurant Da U Titti enjoys a delightful location in a medieval village of Imperia of extraordinary beauty that is part of the list of the most beautiful villages in Italy.

Da U Titti is definitely one of the best tables in western Liguria.

It is a place where everything runs perfectly, from the perfectly synchronized organization of the dining room and kitchen to the excellence of the dishes created by a Chef with an important curriculum.

Chiara in the dining room is a delightful hostess, but it is all the staff, under her careful guidance, who know how to move with grace and attention.

Riccardo in the kitchen shows off masterful preparations that stand out for the wisdom of combinations, for the quality of raw materials and the apparent simplicity of each dish.

The clear and precise flavors are those of an evolved cuisine, modern and personal, made of clear ideas and the necessary expertise in putting them into action.

Thanks to the choices made by Chiara, who is also a Sommelier, we had a divine drink, with a food and wine pairing of great depth, harmony and elegance: a sequence of "goodies" carefully selected from producers all over Italy, from small local producers to big names, in order to find the best proposals to exalt our sense of smell and palate.
