Ristorante Andrea Larossa - Torino

The Andrea Larossa restaurant, which moved to Turin in 2022 after years of success and recognition in Alba, enjoys a highly evocative location at the foot of the Turin hill. There are two entrances. The one from the private car park with direct access from Piazza Merano, a must and a real gem in the city, will take you directly to the dining room after you have parked your car. The interiors of the restaurant impress with the airiness and elegance of the spaces. The rooms of a former bowling alley have been renovated with great taste, giving life to a spectacular structure which is divided into a large dining room blazing with light overlooked by a second raised room with an open kitchen like a balcony, where some privileged tables are hosted from which to follow the movements of the Chef and his Brigade.

Trattoria Zappatori - Pinerolo (TO)

Christian Milone's Trattoria Zappatori is based in the center of Pinerolo in a historic late 18th-century building.
Crossing the driveway located under the porches, here is the inner courtyard with the zen garden next to the entrance.
Having walked down a short corridor onto which face, in order, the intimate small room for small convivial gatherings, the kitchen with "Table d'Hôte" and the charming Cantina, here is the elegant dining room in half-light, which enjoys an intimate and relaxing atmosphere.
The ambiance is warm and well-kept, with elegant parquet floors, exposed brick portions, frescoed vaulted ceilings supported by columns, and designer tables and chairs.
Lighting is provided by hanging spotlights on each table, illuminating only these.
Christian Milone's is a signature cuisine that impresses with the sharpness and cleanliness of each dish, to which is added, for those who can grasp it, a tangible sense of loving care devoted to each presentation.
Christian has always had an innate ability to make every ingredient noble by enhancing its primary flavors; he has always abhorred the term "create" because "it is Nature that creates and we are at Nature's service"; he has always put the absolute quality of the raw material first.
All this has made him a critically award-winning chef and on a steady ascent to the starry firmament. Then, a terrible accident.
The "aftermath" has given us back a different Christian, more mature, reflective and aware, a man who sees life and success from a different, almost Zen-like perspective...
We could call him a lucky guy, even though Fate has reserved for him a fate that has changed his character and approach dramatically.
Our advice is to run to Pinerolo to taste a very original artist's cuisine with lots of vegetable ingredients but not vegetarian, textural, aesthetic and faceted... You will be amazed and delighted, as we always have been since we have known Christian!
