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.

Radix Cucina Contemporanea - Giaveno (TO)

Radix Cucina Contemporanea is the new eatery opened by Chef Riccardo Portesi in Giaveno, a town in the Turin area not far from the Avigliana Lakes.

The imagination of the preparations, which is already expressed in the names (which intrigue and often make us smile), is combined with an uncommon technique, with a sense of measure and an attention to detail to be applauded. Nothing is left to chance, not even in the dining room, where Andrea Mauro proposes an original and well-thought-out food-wine pairing.
