Housed in a charming palazzo with an Art Nouveau façade overlooking the main square of the village, this restaurant has an unexpectedly modern and minimalist-style interior. The menu features an impressive selection of fine local charcuterie (including coppa, pancetta and salami), as well as anolini pasta in broth and ricotta and spinach tortelli. The quality of the meat is outstanding.

Still on the plain, yet already at the foot of the hills that can be glimpsed on the horizon, what from the outside presents itself as a typical country house surprises within with an elegant dining room that opens into a sort of veranda overlooking the garden and the greenery of the lower Piacenza countryside. The atmosphere is relaxed and most agreeable, ideally suited to a refined yet never formal lunch or dinner. The menu features references to local ingredients and recipes, alongside the excellent focaccia with ciccioli served among the bread course, a true speciality of the house. The co

The menu is a journey through flavours that weave the traditions of Piacenza together with influences from other Italian regions. One of the highlights is their take on a Ligurian dish: Cappon magro di fiume, which combines sturgeon and trout with seasonal vegetables and salsa verde, creating fresh and lively contrasts. But the dish that won us over today is the charcoal-grilled pigeon: juicy meat, velvety liver pâté, a rich gravy and vegetables from the garden, in a perfect balance between technique and taste. The experience doesn't stop here: the wine list offers a wealth of rare and intrigu

In the historic heart of Bobbio, on the first floor of a former 17th-century convent, three intimate, well-appointed rooms welcome you with lively paintings and vintage objects. The menu is lean yet rich, offering four options for each course, blending tradition with playful flavors. The wine list is like a small encyclopedia, featuring a thousand labels from around the world, with vertical selections for connoisseurs. Don't miss the ricotta pearls with sun-dried tomatoes, black olives, and Parmesan.

In a small village with a fascinating crenellated castle, this restaurant is run by a husband and wife team. They offer a refined cuisine that is a balanced blend of local recipes and creativity.

A country retreat that captivates with simplicity and passion: modern, comfortable rooms open onto a landscape that embraces the hills of Piacenza, while outdoor dining offers glimpses of light and nature. The menu invites guests to enjoy a tasting menu in which the grill releases intense aromas, or à la carte dishes that range from land to sea to garden, in a balance of scents and colours. Two cosy suites, a holistic wellness centre scented with natural essences and, in fine weather, a Zen garden that invites you to relax, complete the experience.

A fairy-tale setting for a property of almost castle-like aspect, originally built as a customs post on the River Po in the fourteenth century. Today Massimo Spigaroli, whose family were once sharecroppers on the surrounding land, is its owner and has transformed the complex into a complete destination: guest rooms, the Hosteria del Maiale bistrot and spaces for private events. Completing the experience are a visit to the Museo del Culatello and a ‘gastrofluvial’ cuisine deeply bound to the traditions of the local area. Among the historic dishes, the frogs’ legs stand out, golden with sweet ga
