Inside, the atmosphere is warm and intimate, yet not overly formal. There are just a few tables, and guests are served and pampered with the utmost care. Chef Farina personally takes care of presenting the menu to the table, with patience and dedication. Here, you can try traditional dishes revisited and/or presented in a new way, as well as Japanese-inspired fusion dishes, accompanied by the finest Oltrepo wines. I 've eaten here at least four times in the last few years and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended! Here in the photo you can see a small selection of dishes that impressed me: -Braised venison, polenta, and vegetables -Duck breast with orange and pink pepper -Tuna tonnato with sesame seeds -Gnocchi with diced fresh tuna, extra virgin olive oil, and pine nuts -Celeriac escalope, cheese, and balsamic vinegar -Espresso tiramisu with a hint of saffron -Creme diplomatica, meringue, red fruit coulis, mint

We entered and were greeted by the chef, who explained the menu to us verbally. The waiter was very young and inexperienced (it was his first time serving) and was a bit awkward. We ate excellent quality food, although I must say the portions were a bit small for the price. I'm not a big eater, so I enjoyed it, but my companions left still hungry.

I had the kidney skewers and pork snout, which were absolutely amazing. My partner had the salami and bigoli with ragù, which were also spectacular. Excellent value! Four courses, two desserts, and a bottle of wine for €25, cost us €86 in total. We'll definitely be back! Congratulations!
