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.

L'Artigiano in Salice - Rivanazzano (PV)

L'Artigiano in Salice is a modern restaurant with braceria and cocktail bar located in Rivanazzano, a spa town not far from Salice Terme.
The owners, in the person of Mattia Giordano Barberis, have created a place with great potential.
The interior is striking: a modern "industrial chic" environment, very trendy and well maintained, characterized by large spaces and contemporary furnishings.
The venue stands out for its meat offerings.
You will find a wonderful selection of Wagyu, not only the legendary Japanese beef from Kioto (Ginkakugji Onishi Wagyu), but also Wagyu from Australian farms and from the only Italian farm (Ca' Negra).
These are joined by Danish selections, Fassona and spices.
L'Artigiano in Salice is a new generation braceria with great ambitions.
The highly evocative environment and the maniacal care for the selection of absolute and uncompromising quality of the products, the choice to follow in-house the long, delicate and costly processes of maturing and seasoning, make it an essential destination for those who want to approach a serious and not only commercial vision of the grill.
We, who have followed Chef Alessandro Cerutti on his culinary journey over the years, find him here today even more motivated and charged to embrace a young, hip and winning project.
What we like about him is his respect for even "poor" raw materials and his passion for exploring every new frontier, such as the curing of fish. The drinks are good, with a nice proposal of dedicated cocktails and a wine pairing that favors the enhancement of local producers.
