Ca Da Ninna - DOLCEDO

Small place located in an old stone house. Characteristic interiors with vaulted ceilings. Food absolutely genuine and cooked with passion as once. Liguri specialty. Oil of own production. Friendly and professional managers. Great price.

The location is particular, very suggestive.....the ones brought in the media.... The place is clean and the prices are honest!

I was twice at dinner at this place The first impression that you try to enter the premises through a small staircase to get to the 1st floor is clean, indeed, polished. all in the room shines . the place cured and housed. simple and genuine staff friendly and very helpful. Relaxing and well-kept place, Unico neo, the road to get there, typical Ligurian, narrow and full of curves Overall the local is worthwhile.

Christmas lunch with families. We decide to return to the farm “Cà da Ninna” located in Costa Carnara, a hamlet of Dolcedo, a small town in the first hinterland. By itinerary and description I kindly refer you to my previous reviews. Day with a time of wolves. He's been diluting since last night and doesn't seem to want to know how to stop. We're six in everything, including parchment. The meeting is around half, I leave everyone in front of the entrance and continue towards the private parking reserved to the local customers, organized a couple of hundred meters later. With our table you complete the only room available and you can start. The menu of the farm is already set and part with an infinite series of mixed Antipasti served in fast (the right) succession: crespelle with fondue, frittatina of asparagus, basket of grana stuffed with cream cheese, raw and rucola meat, rolled with patata lessa and speck, gnocco fritto with raw ham and cheese, yellow and red curled peppers. One better than the other. I keep myself on the bis that are proposed only because I know how long it is still along their menu, but if I listen to my will, I would start again. The appetizers remain one of the strengths (if not the first ever) of this kitchen. All accompanied by an excellent bread basket, made by them, crisp externally and with a soft mollic inside, for me very dangerous because I could finish it in a moment. We love our lunch with the House Wines, both red and white. Both of them produce, white nothing of which, far too rustic and homemade, while red definitely more lovely and in my opinion more indicated. You pass to the first: a Lasagna to the pesto and the Cannelloni. Both dishes not really exciting, and in my opinion with the same defects, insipid and with a overdose of bechamel that completely covered the flavor. Too bad. For the two seconds, however, the speech is different, the two courses were discreet, if anything I would go to discuss the choice: Brasato slices with peas and Cima alla genovese. Tradition is fine, but I personally did not find them particularly inviting. Cook well, but maybe a little sad. Let's close lunch with a series of desserts. First a lemon mousse with over three small meringues. Very delicate, very good. Then the Biscotti della Ninna, always present, a kind of “brutti, but good” to match the Moscato dolce left on every table and, to close, a series of slices of Panettone and Pandoro accompanied, for those who want, from a delicious pastry cream. Tour of sweets decidedly adapted for goodness and relevance to the holiday. There's still a round of dried fruit and five coffees with its coffee killer. The final expense is 170 euros. A per capita amount of 30 euros, considering a reduction for the pargola that stopped after the endless series of appetizers. Very kind and attentive. As usual a value for money clearly above average. We rise satisfied and definitely sazi. Satisfied, especially, for a wonderful tour of appetizers that, alone, is worth the trip. The only real regret is for the first two, just unconvincing.
