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. As you cross the threshold of the entrance, you will find yourself immersed in a quaint rustic-elegant style setting, full of curious elements, from the piano to the tiled stove, from the collection of ceramic roosters to vintage and modern racing bicycles, a great passion of Chef and Patron Ugo Vairo. The main hall is decorated like a wedding favor, with oriental carpets and many well-displayed bottles. Ugo Vairo and Renata Siboni run a place that easily wins over its customers. It's got all the right ingredients: an atmosphere that's elegant and refined, but still relaxed; service that's meticulous yet feels like family; and exc...

San Quintino Resort - Busca (CN)

The San Quintino Resort, Country Inns & Suites with gourmet restaurant, is located in the Busca countryside, just where the plains give way to the first mountain slopes. From the former estate that once belonged to the Marquis d'Azeglio, Mr. and Mrs. Alessandro Degiovanni and Sandra Dogliani have carved out a charming, secluded and restful wood and stone structure with the appeal of fine dining. Of the resort you will find a rich photo report in lemilleUnanotte.
Stepping through the entrance, you will be plunged into a refined, warm and evocative atmosphere thanks to a clever juxtaposition of wood, stone, exposed brick and many tastefully chosen trinkets. To reach the dining room, you will pass through the reception area. The main dining room is preceded by an initial small room with a sitting area and fireplace. Stone floors and characteristic brick vaulted ceilings stand out, enhanced by pleasant lighting. The transition to the main dining room is highlighted by the floors, which continue with warm natural hardwood parquet flooring.
At San Quintino Resort, the Chefs take turns but the Kitchen's proposal becomes more and more exciting with every visit we make: this is the magical alchemy of a delightful Relais that we particularly love.
Lorenzo Audisio's is a kitchen of depth, seasoned with refined technique and exciting content, which makes a visit to the restaurant a must for every gourmet: we have experienced curious and captivating dishes, created with the use of ingredients of absolute quality, ranging with ease from the territory to the sea, with original, and in some cases surprising, combinations aimed at enhancing the flavors to the maximum.
Special mention must be made of Giulia's graciousness and competence, who will make you drink magnificently from a Wine Cellar assorted with intelligence and passion, full of almost unobtainable "goodies." The Restaurant and its Relais are certainly worth a special trip to discover a cuisine capable of giving emotions, including a stimulating digression from the main traffic routes of the Cuneo area.
