Marco Polo - Ventimiglia (IM)

The Marco Polo restaurant, run for three generations by the Pani family, is located in a beautiful seafront position on the Ventimiglia promenade. The place is unmistakable: a building entirely made of wood, like a chalet, which stands out among the other signs of the beach establishments. The interiors are also completely made of wood: the overall atmosphere, warm and welcoming, may initially amaze with its originality in the context. The entrance precedes the two dining rooms.

Lostu - Monforte d'Alba (CN)

Lostu, a modern osteria opened by Chef Pasquale Laera, is based in a magnificent panoramic location among the hills of Monforte d'Alba, in Frazione Sant'Anna.
The only rectangular room is characterized by huge windows open to the Langhe landscape and rustic furnishings with some very original details, such as chandeliers made from baskets and baskets.
At Lostu you will rediscover the authentic flavors of peasant cuisine in a modern Trattoria with a splendid view of the Langa hills.
The restaurant, opened by Chef Pasquale Laera in collaboration with his friend sous-chef George Uta a few steps from Borgo Sant'Anna, is dedicated to conviviality and festive moments in a relaxed and jovial atmosphere, with the spirit of the inns of the past.
It is not and does not want to be the Bistrot of the starred Restaurant, but an independent Osteria.
Its symbol is the hen, the animal that populated the chicken coops of every farmhouse, which best embodies its philosophy, referring to the farmyard and tradition, to the knowledge of those who work the land and to the flavor of the most genuine and natural dishes.
The cuisine, absolutely perfect and centered in its genre, is Piedmontese and "homemade", which offers forgotten recipes with vegetables picked in the garden or purchased from the farmers, following the seasonality of the ingredients.
