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. The main one has a rectangular plan, well-spaced tables and overlooks the private beach through large windows and a French door. In the kitchen there is Diego Pani, a young and concrete chef. Among his experiences, the kitchens of Vittorio Beltramelli, Joël Robuchon, Guy Savoy and three years at Louis XV in Monte Carlo together with Alain Ducasse.

Fàula - Cerretto Langhe (CN)

The Fàula restaurant is located in the Langhe hills inside the prestigious Relais Casa di Langa, of which lemilleUnanotte publishes a rich reportage.
Its name, which in local dialect means "tale", was chosen in homage to the centuries-old tradition of the region which wants families and friends to spend time together sharing stories.
The restaurant overlooks an entire glass wall onto the large terrace from which to enjoy the splendid panorama of the Langa hills, with Serralunga d'Alba in the foreground.
You can access it directly by lift from the Reception floor, first encountering the room with the bar counter, and, in front of this, the air-conditioned cellar, which can in turn host small convivial meetings.
The Fàula Restaurant impressed us in an extremely positive way.
Chef Daniel Zeilinga has crystal-clear talent and a world-class hand: with each course the impression of being in front of a star of the first magnitude was strengthened in us.
All his dishes rank very high in our very personal scale of values, starting with the vegetable ones, which represent the near future of fine dining, supported by a proprietary vegetable garden exploited to the fullest.
The Chef's magnificent training path permeates every dish released, with clear and precise flavours, impeccable combinations and a classy assembly that belong to a higher scale of values and can only arouse enthusiasm.
