Ristorante Andrea Larossa - Torino

The Andrea Larossa restaurant, which moved to Turin in 2022 after years of success and recognition in Alba, enjoys a highly evocative location at the foot of the Turin hill. There are two entrances. The one from the private car park with direct access from Piazza Merano, a must and a real gem in the city, will take you directly to the dining room after you have parked your car. The interiors of the restaurant impress with the airiness and elegance of the spaces. The rooms of a former bowling alley have been renovated with great taste, giving life to a spectacular structure which is divided into a large dining room blazing with light overlooked by a second raised room with an open kitchen like a balcony, where some privileged tables are hosted from which to follow the movements of the Chef and his Brigade.

LangOtto Ristorante - Novello (CN)

LangOtto is the name of Chef Otto Lucà's gourmet restaurant in Novello, in the heart of the Langhe.
The restaurant has been customized with a few well-calibrated touches.
We like the sign with the stylized plate for the "O" and the double meaning of the word "Novello," which can be interpreted as a place or an adjective.
The rectangular dining room, nicely decorated with modern artwork throughout, overlooks the Novello vineyards through windows and small balconies. The tables are few and well spaced, and with low candlelight, the atmosphere is warm and romantic.
The outdoor space is used in warm weather with a dehors on the small square and with equipment on the 3 small balconies.
Langhe and Piedmontese dishes cooked with French techniques: this is the summary of what you will find at LangOtto, an excellent Langa restaurant run by a young, ambitious, talented and motivated chef.
Starting with an impeccable foie gras (for which we refer you to the previous report), there are many dishes to remember, which are also being renewed at a rapid pace.
Otto Lucà possesses, in addition to the most modern techniques, a not inconsiderable gift of balance, which leads him to cook calibrated dishes, built on great raw materials with simple and precise ideas.
A detail that we like to note is the serving of dishes that are always very hot in the dining room, a detail that is not always obvious but that can make all the difference.
Elisa Andreotti's input in the dining room is crucial in matching the dishes with a very well-rounded cellar.
