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.

Bruma Restaurant - Pavia

Bruma Restaurant is located in the "foggy heart" of Pavia (from which it takes its name), right in the center, overlooking a pedestrian street a few meters from the Cathedral of Santo Stefano and Santa Maria Assunta.
The interiors are warm and welcoming, characterized by parquet floors, wooden ceilings and walls with exposed frescoes and portions of bare bricks.
In front of the kitchen there is a table d'hôte for two privileged diners.
Bruma Restaurant represents a true gastronomic experience in a welcoming environment.
Alessandro Cerutti, whom we have been following for years on his journey as chef, has a beautiful hand and many clear and highly shareable ideas: his philosophy of no-waste, no-waste, leads him to use every part and the less noble cuts with surprising results.
The idea of taking away rather than adding is also a winning one. Added to all this is a great mastery of aging techniques, both of meats and fish, an ever-living desire to experiment and a great sense of the balance of combinations.
We drank very well, with a food-wine pairing of depth, thanks to Paola Tronconi, the Chef's partner and Sommelier.
