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. As you cross the threshold of the entrance, you will find yourself immersed in a quaint rustic-elegant style setting, full of curious elements, from the piano to the tiled stove, from the collection of ceramic roosters to vintage and modern racing bicycles, a great passion of Chef and Patron Ugo Vairo. The main hall is decorated like a wedding favor, with oriental carpets and many well-displayed bottles. Ugo Vairo and Renata Siboni run a place that easily wins over its customers.

Ristorante Connubio - Torino

The Connubio restaurant is located in Turin in the Crocetta area, easy to reach and with good parking possibilities.
His name evokes the project of intertwining tastes and aromas, tradition and modernity, which animates the young Chef Paolo Cecchi and his wife Ianira.
The single room, integrated with an enjoyable dehors to be used during the summer, has a rectangular layout and light tones.
The tables with wooden sheets drowned in resin are of great design, all unique pieces, served by chairs that are different from each other.
Paolo Cecchi is a young and talented chef, with very clear ideas on how to propose a pleasant and personal contemporary cuisine, excellently played on references to the two culinary traditions that represent his cultural background, the Piedmontese and the Tuscan one.
His dishes, often played on contrast, always use a few well-recognisable and equally well-harmonised ingredients, in the most authentic school of thought of the great Marchesi, with innovative combinations, moderation and a pinch of audacity.
A very careful eye is given to sustainability, which for Paolo Cecchi represents the future of cooking: therefore ample space for vegetables, which are ethical and enjoyable.
In his intimate and intimate restaurant you dine convincingly and drink very well, thanks to a small wine list focused on real "gems" resulting from careful and intelligent research.
