Casa Lanzafame - Carmagnola (TO)

Casa Lanzafame, a Sicilian fish restaurant, is located in Carmagnola, in a restricted traffic area accessible until dinner time. The exterior does not go unnoticed, vast and blazing with lights. The ancient 16th century building has been the subject of a careful and tasteful renovation. The rectangular main dining room overlooks the exteriors with large windows on one side and the internal courtyard on the other. The spaces are pleasant and well furnished. The side facing the kitchens hosts a couple of "table d'hôte" tables from which to watch the preparations and plating.

Celestino - Piobesi Torinese (TO)

The Celestino restaurant and hotel is housed in a prestigious 15th-century house, one of the few preserved in the historic center of Piobesi Torinese, a town half an hour's drive from the Savoy capital.
The restaurant has been run since 1904 by the Leggero family, which over the years has handed down the memory of typical Piedmontese cuisine and hospitality. This year it celebrates an impressive 120 years in business!
The large main room has been completely renovated with a modern taste but the original barrel vaults dating back to 1458 are still present, plastered.
The light colors are interrupted by the dove-gray central partition, the stone back wall and some very colorful paintings and posters.
Great raw materials, a perfect mastery of cooking and beautiful plating for a traditional cuisine presented in a modern guise (with several gluten-free preparations), this is the summary of what we experienced at Celestino.
A place run by the family for generations (we are now at the fifth!) with a long tradition not only of catering but also of butcher and food shop, a circumstance that is clearly felt in the quality of the offer. We recommend it as a gastronomic experience of absolute value in its category.
