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.

Piano35 - Torino

Piano35 is the trendy restaurant that since July 2016 has dominated Turin from the thirty-fifth floor of the Intesa-San Paolo Skyscraper, designed by Renzo Piano: a unique place, wrapped in the greenery of a bioclimatic greenhouse, from which the city is overlooked with a breathtaking view from 166 meters above the ground.
The restaurant is entrusted to the prestigious management of Marco Sacco, Executive Chef, and Christian Balzo, Resident Chef, who led it to the Star.
Italy's Highest Restaurant is reached by a very fast elevator from the direct entrance on the street level, where the reception desk for guests is located.
The Restaurant hall is spectacular for its ultra-modern "loft design" with taut glass and steel structures, parquet floors in warm natural hues, and floor-to-ceiling windows flooding the room with light from the 4 perimeter sides.
Artificial lighting has been cleverly designed to allow optimal views of the cityscape in the evening: low lights in the room with spotlights well centered on the tables.
The Piano35 restaurant is worth a visit both for the spectacularity of the location and for the virtues of a modern cuisine, based on the quality of the raw material and state-of-the-art technique, led by chefs of absolute prestige.
With each of our visits, the tasting path surprises and delights us, to a greater extent each time...
A very high-level, well-knit and motivated Room, and an excellent brigade at the stove, add luster and quality to a Restaurant that is at the top of the offerings of the Capital and the Region.
