Convivium

The Connubio restaurant is located in Turin in the Crocetta area, easy to reach and with good parking facilities. His name evokes the project of intertwining tastes and aromas, tradition and modernity, which animates the young Chef Paolo Cecchi and his girlfriend Ianira. The only room, integrated by an enjoyable terrace to be used during the summer, has a rectangular development and light tones. The tables with wooden sheets embedded in resin are of great design, all unique pieces, served by chairs different from each other. Paolo Cecchi is a young and talented chef, with clear ideas on how to offer a pleasant and personal gourmet cuisine, excellently played on the references to the two culinary traditions that represent his cultural background, the Piedmontese and the Tuscan one. His dishes, often played on contrast, always use a few recognizable and perfectly harmonized ingredients, in the most authentic school of thought of the great Marchesi, with innovative combinations, mea...

De Gustibus is a place of excellent gastronomic value, thanks to a young, talented and motivated Chef who has found the maximum possibility of expression here. The interiors are modern and pleasant, with bold colors that give personality. The dining room has a rerrangular development, with large and well-spaced tables that fully comply with the anti-contagion directives. The vast dehors represents an external outlet of vital importance in this particular moment of gradual return to normality. Davide Cristaldi's cuisine is fresh, stimulating and balanced, based on carefully selected ingredients combined with a happy hand. Do you want to post your comment?

The Locanda in Cannubi is located on the road that leads from Alba to Barolo, the heart of the Langhe, right in the center of one of the most prestigious vineyards in Italy and in the world, which gives it its name. Owned by the Tenuta Carretta farm and run by the Bertolini-Boggione family - a true institution of traditional Langhe cuisine - it is the result of the careful renovation of an 18th century farmhouse returned to its ancient splendor to offer a refined gastronomic proposal and a classy hospitality. The splendid panoramic room is one of the local assets: taking a seat in front of the huge windows you will feel part of the landscape. Alongside the inevitable traditional specialties, proposed in a contemporary key with extreme grace and respect, the kitchen offers some more "creative" preparations, all made with skill, technique and skill.

LangOtto is the name of the gastronomic restaurant opened a few months ago by Chef Otto Lucà in Novello, in the heart of the Langhe. We like the sign, with the plate stylized for the "O" and the double meaning of the word "Novello" that can be interpreted as a locality or adjective. Crossing the threshold, you will meet the first of the contemporary works of art that decorate the restaurant, the two wall clocks "neither before nor after", the work of Nicus Lucà, which indicate one the hours the other the minutes. The rectangular dining room overlooks the vineyards with a view that is as spectacular as it is unsuspected before entering. Langhe and Piedmontese dishes cooked with French techniques: this is the synthesis of what we experienced at LangOtto, a new local in Langa led by a young, ambitious and motivated Chef. Otto Lucà, together with an excellent technique, possesses the not negligible gift of balance, which leads him to cook dishes built on...

Sono tornati i Reportage di Convivium! Con l'emergenza Covid-19 i settori della ristorazione e dell'hôtellerie sono stati messi in ginocchio da scelte politiche bizzarre. Ci è risultato difficile capire perché una cena al ristorante, "distanziata" e con tutti gli accorgimenti di prevenzione, sia stata considerata più rischiosa di una spesa al supermercato, luogo di inevitabile assembramento. Nemmeno comprendevamo perché un ritorno in auto a mezzanotte, in coppia e a casa propria, potesse apparire più pericoloso di un trasferimento in ufficio alle 9 del mattino. Una politica come sempre ottusa aveva deciso che il virus operasse con virulenza differente a seconda degli orari, e con questo ha condannato interi settori, colpendone alcuni fra i più sani e virtuosi per l'economia del paese... Quella stessa politica che ha garantito un reddito per starsene a casa a fare niente, con l'ovvia conseguenza di rendere molto problematico il reclutamento del personale pe...

The "Locanda Corona di Ferro" is located in Saluzzo with entrance from the courtyard of a building in the center under the arcades. The owner Alberto Melano, a great connoisseur and lover of regional cuisine and products, has been able to create an attractive and successful place. The dining room stands out for its exposed brick background pattern, parquet flooring and warm orange colors. The restaurant is a good address of typical Piedmontese cuisine in a warm and welcoming location, with the must of a very pleasant terrace in the large courtyard at the entrance.

The Cornoler restaurant is located in Turin, overlooking a quiet semi-central street with a small terrace. Its name in Friulian dialect means "Corniolo", a typical tree of the region, whose fruits are perfect for conservation (under grappa, of course!) and whose wood (the hardest in Europe) is a symbol of the Friulians' character, which one must know how to take the right way. The restaurant is divided into two small, very welcoming rooms, with a bar corner at the entrance. Cornoler is a restaurant with unique characteristics in the Turin catering scene: in a small family restaurant with the quality of a large restaurant, you can taste authentic Friulian cuisine. A selection of a few well-finished dishes, simplicity of combinations and maximum attention to the product characterize a kitchen of excellent impact, with the gem of some preparation under the lamp. The great passion that the Patron Paolo Zambon has poured into his room is evident! Do you want to post...
