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.

Eremo della Gasprina - La Morra (CN)











Eremo della Gasprina is a small restaurant with rooms located in a panoramic position in the Langa hills in a hamlet of La Morra.
It is passionately run by Simone Burlotto and his partner Giulia Calzia, who have transformed it into a gem of excellent cuisine and wine cellar.


A highlight of the restaurant is the veranda with beautiful views of the hills, which is taken advantage of during the warm season.


Eremo della Gasprina's current formula is a stimulating and well-rounded "surprise" tasting itinerary that intrigues and satisfies.

One drinks very well, thanks to the pairings thought up by Giulia, who is not only an excellent Sommelier but also a perfect "hostess".

Simone and Giulia are a very well-matched couple who have been able to command attention in a difficult and competitive "square" like the Langa: he a chef with clear ideas and an inspired hand, she a punctilious and passionate sommelier.
