Lokanda Devetak 1870, located a very short distance from the Slovenian border, has belonged to the Devetak family since its founding back in 1870, gradually becoming over the decades a true local gastronomic institution. With Avguštin running it, along with his wife Gabriella and daughters, we are now in our sixth generation. The entrance to the Lokanda, surrounded by green woodland and equipped with private parking, is heralded by an archway. As soon as you cross the threshold, you are greeted by a typical, warm and comfortable environment furnished with lots of wood. The interiors are structured in three rooms rich in history and atmosphere: a simple décor, played on the contrast between terracotta floors and light-colored walls, with exposed wooden beams punctuating the ceilings and poor art furniture. At Devetak's you can enjoy an authentic gastronomic experience in a true "institution" of the Region: an experience that no gourmet should miss. Deveta...

Locanda dell'Olmo is located in the small village of Bosco Marengo, in the central square, adorned by a fountain. Crossing the threshold, you enter a first room with a bar. Just beyond is the main dining room. The ambiance is rustic, neat, and pleasant, with terracotta tile floors, a few well-spaced tables, and traditional wooden chairs with upholstered seats. The lighting is provided by chandeliers and wall sconces; in a corner at the back of the room, an arte povera sideboard stands out. A trattoria of substance, the Locanda dell'Olmo offers a simple and genuine cuisine, firmly rooted in tradition. Some dishes are prepared with products from the nearby Liguria, especially in summer. In addition to the cuisine, we liked the informal atmosphere and the warm welcome, which make customers feel at home. As the Bondi's are also producers of quality wines, it is definitely worth tasting some labels from the family vineyards. Do you want to pos...
