Marco Polo - Ventimiglia (IM)

The Marco Polo restaurant, run for three generations by the Pani family, is located in a beautiful seafront position on the Ventimiglia promenade. The place is unmistakable: a building entirely made of wood, like a chalet, which stands out among the other signs of the beach establishments. The interiors are also completely made of wood: the overall atmosphere, warm and welcoming, may initially amaze with its originality in the context. The entrance precedes the two dining rooms.

Giasseria, Drogheria Ittica - Pavia











La Giasseria, Drogheria Ittica, is located in Pavia in a central location, a few steps from the pedestrian area.

La Giasseria is a "sui generis" restaurant that deserves great attention: under the aegis of patron Mirko Quirino, chef Alessandro Cerutti and sushiman Marcello Riina create a fish and Japanese-inspired cuisine that is wonderfully based on avant-garde techniques and a respect for "poor" raw materials that deserves open applause.
You will enjoy a rich, stimulating, cultured and refined gastronomic experience in a shabby-chic environment that elegantly reflects and synthesizes the philosophy of the house.
The maturing of fish is a relatively new frontier and decidedly little explored even by the great kitchens: here it is done with love even before the masterly technique, and the dishes that arrive on the table really seem to smell of passion.
