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.

Trattoria Guallina - Mortara (PV)

Grey tiled floors, yellow painted walls, classic old-fashioned chairs, ceilings decorated with wooden ribs, poor art furniture and a pellet stove strategically placed next to the entrance knob are the distinguishing features of the décor.
The Trattoria Guallina has always offered a cuisine closely tied to the territory and to tradition, respecting seasonality and in constant search of quality, with preparations just lightened to meet modern tastes.
The specialty of the house is the goose, to which many dishes almost introvabli elsewhere are dedicated.
