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.

Vintriga - Castagnole delle Lanze (AT)

Vintriga is an elegant restaurant and wine bar located in the central square of the beautiful village of Castagnole delle Lanze.
The interior is the result of a wise conservative renovation of the former grocery store bought in '96 by Alessandro Cortese's parents.
The small entrance hall is occupied by the pouring counter and a tasting area with small tables, sofas and armchairs.
At the back is the open kitchen, in front of which stands a beautiful red Berkel slicer.
A short corridor with two small tables connects the entrance area with the two small dining rooms, which feature frescoed ceilings and restored antique doors.
The second small room is the picturesque Cantina, with a crystal table for six.
Vintriga is a young and relaxed place that stands out both as a wine bar with a great cantina and as a place where local cuisine is revisited, with a meticulous search for excellent products, prepared with technique and a taste for combinations.
Many of the recipes are playful interpretations of classic dishes, where the addition of a non-canonical ingredient gives them a more modern, experimental look.
