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.

Il Grifone - Castel San Pietro Terme (BO)

The combinations are calibrated to highlight each ingredient without ever masking it.
The Cantina makes it possible to drink well: it is worth tasting some of the products of the winery, which was founded in 2015 and already has some interesting labels on its shields.
