Simply food to feel good
A region of famous dishes
Home to some of the classics
Did you know that Grissini, Insalata Russa, Vitello Tonnato, Carne Cruda, Agnolotti del Plin, Tajarin, Lingua con Salsa Verde, Brasato, Bonet and Panna Cotta are all from the Piemonte?
The region has its own cuisine and you will find many of the classics on any restaurant menu. Piemonte is also famous for the slow food movement and some restaurants are influenced by the Ligurian region, famous for fish dishes and la farinata.
If you crave something a little more international, larger cities like Torino and Milano will provide a larger number of choices in foreign cuisine. Buon Appetito!

Radici a Mura Mura
Customer review on TripAdvisor
“A perfect blend of modern trendy and traditional place that melts into the nature and forms a place to be for some quality time. We had the chef choice menu 6 courses and it was really perfect. Local wine package to match which was in harmony with the food.”
Volli Restaurant

“Outstanding! After an afternoon seeing the sights of Asti – famous for the Palio bareback horse race in the town square, friends from Piedmont took us to this restaurant for dinner, which was unforgettable.”
Enoteca di Canelli
From the Michelin Guide
“Occupying a late-19C palazzo, in what was a historic wine cellar right up to the late 1960s, this well-run family restaurant serves regional cuisine with a contemporary twist. The basement dining room is accessible by stairs only.”
