圣埃基迪欧农舍

Ronchi Rò is an estate and agriturismo immersed in greenery, among the rolling hills of Collio and its lush woodlands: a borderland of captivating and almost fairy-tale character, celebrated for its extraordinary wines, the only ones to appear on the small dedicated list. The cooking of chef Fares Issa is flavoursome and forthright, vivid in colour and deeply seasonal. Drawing on a fine selection of local produce – salami, prosciutto, goose speck, cheeses – it also offers dishes of a more contemporary profile in which his imagination comes to the fore: excellent, for instance, the raviolacci f

In the heart of Collio, among gentle hills just steps from the Slovenian border, this restaurant stands as a true gastronomic ambassador of the territory, celebrating tradition with consistency and warm hospitality in relaxing surroundings where time seems to slow down. The menu embraces the most authentic cuisine – the zlikrofi, potato-and-chive-filled tortelli served with pan juices and shavings of aged Montasio are emblematic – alongside more contemporary interpretations, such as an elegant, restrained squab presented in two services. The carefully curated cellar tells the story of the land

In the small, bespoke dining rooms – our favourite is the more traditional one, where the warmth of the fogolar fireplace and the crackling of the embers accompany the owner's interactions with guests – this charming stone and brick house, surrounded by a wooded park, tells the story of the local area through its aromas and flavours. Charcoal grilling is the beating heart of the kitchen, releasing intense aromas that waft through the air; the creamy, comforting risottos are surprisingly well-balanced, an excellent example being that with clams, saffron and courgette flowers. The experience is

In the heart of the old town, rustically charming dining rooms of varying sizes welcome guests with authentic warmth. Try booking the most intimate room, where the Friulian fogolar fireplace crackles and spreads the scent of embers, creating a homely atmosphere. On sunny days, the inner courtyard of the historic building becomes a pleasant refuge, bathed in soft light and silence interrupted only by the clinking of glasses. The all-female waiting staff are quick but attentive, with discreet smiles accompanying every course. The food reflects regional tradition with simplicity: classic cooking

Located in a 16th-century castle in Ceglo, in the heart of the Brda wine region, this restaurant offers breathtaking views of the stunning surrounding vineyards, which are particularly beautiful in autumn. The contemporary and delicious cuisine is showcased through a small selection of carefully chosen dishes, which can be combined into 3, 5, 7 or 9-course menus. The most memorable dishes include porcini mushroom ravioli with sweet and sour chanterelles and mushroom cream, and those with a sweet tooth can enjoy an amazing date cake with salted caramel and ricotta ice cream.

Fish and wine are the soul of this historic restaurant, where the scent of the sea meets the fragrance of the vineyards. The catch, which is among the finest on the market, yields the most delicious dishes: the fish soup with shellfish, enveloped in a Buzara jus that releases intense flavours, is an absolute must. The wine cellar, with a selection of 25,000 bottles, takes you on a journey through the Collio and Colli Orientali hills, enriched by great Italian and international labels and big bottles for real winelovers. A destination to add to your diary if you love authentic and memorable exp

The modern Le Fucine hotel is home to two restaurants with almost identical names: Le Fucine Brasserie and, of course, Le Fucine Gourmet. The latter welcomes guests into an elegant dining room featuring contemporary, minimalist design: clean lines and spotlights that caress the tables, creating an intimate atmosphere. In the centre, like a live stage, is the open kitchen, where chef Andrea Fantini, from Friuli, moves with confident gestures amidst steam and aromas, sharing the experiences he has accumulated over time with every dish. Two tasting menus invite you on a sensory journey: the first
