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.

Coltivare Agri.Relais - La Morra (CN)











Coltivare, recently created in La Morra by the Bagnasco family, owners of Agricola Brandini, is a completely new concept in the Langa, somewhere between fine dining, agritourism and Relais, with precise green and sustainability goals.

The reins of the kitchen have been entrusted to Luca Zecchin, who comes from 20 starred years at Relais San Maurizio.


Nestled among vineyards with breathtaking views of the entire Alpine arc and Monviso, the new property is designed with solar panels for energy self-sufficiency and has 5 rooms, garden, spa and swimming pool.


With this striking new concept in the heart of the Langa, Agricola Brandini has gone big: A well-kept villa with a restaurant and a few rooms nestled among the hills and organic vineyards of Barolo, to which the definition of Agri Relais fits like a glove because of the biodynamic vegetable garden, the winery, and the small chicken farm attached to it; in the kitchen, an acclaimed chef who was a student of the great Lidia Alciati and has passed on her art; and a dining room entrusted to one of the most prestigious maîtres.

A place to "cultivate tastes, passions, dreams, relationships and projects", respectful of the surrounding nature and fully integrated, sustainable and green, for an experience that goes beyond the table, embracing a true philosophy of life and hospitality.
