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.

Osteria Nuova - Torino











The Osteria Nuova restaurant is centrally located in Turin, just a stone's throw from Porta Nuova train station. In front of the entrance is a counter with a reception nook, the kitchen, and the staircase down to the main dining room, which can be seen from the glass plate floors.


The interior is divided into two rooms. The Infernot in the basement, which is reached by a handmade wrought-iron staircase, is very typical and striking. The walls are left with exposed brick, only some of the plastered portions are painted purple-red.


Osteria Nuova is a true Turin "gem" that deserves high regard. We found there, worthy of the highest praise, an almost maniacal search for perfection, from the choice of ingredients and raw materials to the kitchen realization of individual dishes.

All the dishes chosen to make up the menu are the result of a thorough investigation of local recipes and careful and intelligent elaboration.

Chef Stefano Biavaschi is a self-taught chef who is never quite satisfied with his excellent results, with the result that the care put into each dish is of a superior level.

There is very good drinking, thanks to a very well-rounded Cantina with great intelligence.
