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.

OrtOsteria René - Bastia (SV)

Located in Bastia, not far from Albenga, OrtOsteria René is the new "jewel" of BioVio, a modern osteria created with the intention of continuing the family tradition of hospitality and sharing the table, passing on the most authentic peasant recipes by improving the products of the Albenga hinterland.
The name is a tribute to grandfather René, who in the 90's created Il Torchietto, a very successful pizzeria-restaurant.
The cozy and atmospheric interiors show great taste in the combination of materials (stone, wood and brick) and in the choice of furnishings and lighting.
The main dining room continues at the back with a small room with a "table d'hôte" overlooking the glassed-in kitchen.
A floor-to-ceiling glass panel reveals the splendid small wine cellar, accessed by a ladder with a wrought-iron gate.
At OrtOsteria René we had a rich taste experience in a delightful country chic setting.
The cuisine is strictly traditional, with the peasant dishes of the Ligurian hinterland, made with the seasonal products of the OrtOsteria, which supplies the family farm, specializing in artichokes and aromatic herbs.
Accompanying the meal with exciting wines from the home winery, which enjoys the highest international reputation, Aimone made us drink divinely with a wide overview of his most representative wines.
If you want to enjoy the true scents and tastes of Liguria, surrounded by the warm hospitality of a family that is more than rare, a stop here is a must.
