Li Jalantuùmene - Monte Sant'Angelo (FG)

Li Jalantuùmene restaurant overlooks the characteristic Piazza de' Galganis, a sixteenth-century gem in the heart of the historic center of Monte Sant'Angelo, in the heart of the Gargano Park. The external walls with portions of light stone and the clean lines of the building integrate perfectly with the surrounding whiteness of the Junno district. The name of the restaurant, which in dialect means "The Gentlemen", is a true declaration of intent: to recall the elegance, honesty and elegance of times gone by, applying them to hospitality and service.

Ortica - Pieve Ligure (GE)

The Ortica restaurant is an integral part of Tenuta Golfo Paradiso, an ambitious project that brings together a farm, a gourmet restaurant and a super-easy and very "trendy" "hotel" offer of overnight stays in a "StarsBox" bed under the stars.
Once you enter, you will immediately be enchanted by the splendid covered veranda which boasts an unparalleled panoramic view from Punta Chiappa to the French Riviera, with a view of Corsica on the clearest days.
L'Ortica boasts great terroir cuisine, ennobled by an obsessive search for great indigenous produce, centered on BBQ coals, produce from the estate's garden, and the scents of its own aeroponic cultivation.
It is an approach focused on ethics and sustainability, with a Resident Chef, Simone Lolli, who knows the raw material very well and knows how to handle it at its best.
We have long appreciated his hand and technique, making him one of the best and emerging chefs. The confrontation with Marco Visciola, star chef at Marin in Genoa and a partner in the restaurant and coordinator of its activities, is constant and constructive.
In the dining room there is a true “communicator,” Carlo Barile, who knows how to pamper the guest like few, helped in this by a young, motivated and quality brigade.
