Locanda di Orta - Orta San Giulio (NO)

Image
La Locanda di Orta, owned since January 2018 by Chef Andrea Monesi, enjoys a privileged location in the heart of the enchanting village of Orta San Giulio. The small room of the Gourmet Restaurant overlooks the small square below with a delightful balcony. At the Locanda di Orta we have experienced a modern and personality cuisine. The gastronomic proposal of Andrea Monesi is contemporary, elegant, with few well-defined elements and a must of great attention in the selection of raw materials. Banished frills and frills, the search for taste is expressed in preparations and combinations that are never ordinary. Do you want to post your comment? Make yourself the Critic on the Blog!

La Cucina della Darbia - Vacciago (NO)

La Cucina della Darbia is the gastronomic restaurant of La Darbia, one of the most appealing locations on Lake Orta, of which lemilleUnanotte publishes a rich Reportage. You will leave the car in the gravel parking lot in front of the entrance arch and then walk the beautifully decorated pathway through the flowerbeds of the garden. La Cucina della Darbia stands as a first-rate Piedmontese gastronomic reality, with a cuisine of great interest served in an environment of refined but not ostentatious elegance, like a true Maison de Campagne. We have known Chef Matteo Monfrinotti for years, and we have appreciated his professional evolution: his cuisine is now mature, inspired by the territory but with a pinch of audacity. Everything revolves around the products, selected with great attention among the excellences. Do you want to post your comment? Make yourself the Critic on the Blog! Post your comment:
