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. The main one has a rectangular plan, well-spaced tables and overlooks the private beach through large windows and a French door. In the kitchen there is Diego Pani, a young and concrete chef. Among his experiences, the kitchens of Vittorio Beltramelli, Joël Robuchon, Guy Savoy and three years at Louis XV in Monte Carlo together with Alain Ducasse.

RistOrto Casa Format - Orbassano (TO)











"RistOrto" Casa Format is the result of the Responsible Cooking and Hospitality project founded on a zero environmental impact ecosystem operating in Orbassano, in the open countryside but just a stone's throw from Turin, under the auspices of Giovanni Grasso and Igor Macchia's Credenza Group and in collaboration with the Owner of the large designer furniture store next door, Format Progetti Abitativi.


The all-wood and glass building, fronted by a swimming pool, with photovoltaic and water-recycling systems that make it self-sufficient and totally environmentally sustainable, has a hi-tech appearance reminiscent of that of a villa in Florida or California.

Casa Format's slogan is "responsible cooking and hospitality."


So behind the building has sprung up a large vegetable garden with a winter greenhouse, which provides the cooks with raw material all year round, which can be visited and where you can, have an aperitif during the warm season.

It is precisely the garden that dictates the kitchen line with its seasonality.

It is hard not to fall in love with a place like RistOrto Casa Format, where you will experience conviviality and first-rate cuisine in a striking location.

The kitchen, based on the flavors of its own Garden, the true natural larder of the House, aims to rediscover and enhance the seasonality of raw materials and traditions, to offer on the table the beauty and goodness of simple things.

At Casa Format you will appreciate a warm welcome, friendly and informal but studied down to the smallest detail, to make you feel truly at home.
We experience emotions there every time: above all, the joy of being comfortable and feeling pampered.
