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.

La Madernassa Resort - Guarene (CN)











La Madernassa Resort restaurant is located on the Guarene hill 4 kilometers from the historic center of Alba, easily reachable from both Asti and Turin.

A staircase with stone steps leads to the dining rooms on the upper floor and to the splendid outdoor terrace .


We returned to La Madernassa after the change of Chef at the helm of the kitchen, and our curiosity not without great expectations found adequate and convincing answers.

For the beautiful setting, like a true Relais de Campagne, and for a cuisine that has remained excellent and with a very strong personality, La Madernassa Restaurant remains an absolutely unmissable gourmand stop, worth a special trip.

Chef Giuseppe d'Errico was a real discovery for us, and it could not be otherwise from a resume that boasts years of militancy in true stellar temples of great French cuisine, one among them Maison Troisgros.

A reserved and almost shy nature explodes in the kitchen with dishes that will be remembered for their superlative technique and superb quality of raw materials and combinations.

A personal signature of his is the presence of a quenelle in most dishes and a hint of lemon or citrus fruit, for the connotation of acidity inherited from Troisgros.

Needless to dwell on descriptions: at this level, the only thing to do is to rush to try an all-round sensory experience that will gratify your eyes and sense of smell and delight your taste buds...
