LangOtto Ristorante - Novello (CN)

LangOtto is the name of Chef Otto Lucà's gastronomic restaurant in Novello, in the heart of the Langhe.
The place has been personalized with a few well-calibrated touches.
We like the sign, with the plate stylized for the "O" and the double meaning of the word "Novello" which can be interpreted as a location or an adjective.
Once you cross the threshold, at the entrance you will find the bar counter, facing the air-conditioned cellar and the kitchen.
Then you will get to know the first of the numerous contemporary works of art that decorate the restaurant, the two "neither before nor after" wall clocks, the work of Nicus Lucà, which indicate one the hours and the other the minutes.
Following, the portrait of Paul Bocuse made with pins, and the latest arrival, the Mosquito, also made with a pin passing through the protective glass.
Langhe and Piedmontese dishes cooked with French techniques: this is the summary of what you will experience at LangOtto, an excellent Langa restaurant run by a young, ambitious, talented and motivated Chef.
Starting with an impeccably executed foie gras (for which we refer you to the previous report), there are many dishes to remember, which are also renewed at a rapid pace.
Otto Lucà, together with a state of the art technique, possesses the non-negligible gift of balance, which leads him to cook calibrated dishes, built on a great raw material with simple and precise ideas.
There are many recipes that recall childhood, holiday lunches and those warm family atmospheres that we all love to remember.
A detail that we like to highlight is the delivery of very hot dishes to the dining room, which denotes care and attention to every detail.
Elisa Andreotti's contribution to the dining room is crucial for the pairing of dishes with a very well assorted cellar.
