Hotel Ristorante Le Betulle
On the road between Alba and Bra, in a modern building, a hotel and restaurant managed for over 30 years by the Destefanis family. The restaurant is divided into two parts: one which looks like a bistro and another as a restaurant suitable for ceremonies and banquets. The owner Paolo always welcomes you with a smile and accompanies you in the choice of dishes and wines from a cellar attentive to the territory. In summer, you can eat outside. There are several menus: from the simplest for the “business lunch” offered at € 10 to a “tourist” one at € 20 with two appetizers, a first course, second course, dessert, bread and water and coffee excluding wines and finally a more varied “tasting menu”, at € 35. With a “A la carte” menu, the choice is wide and includes many typical local dishes. Among the starters, the Russian salad, raw meat beaten with a knife, veal with tuna sauce in the traditional version cooked in the oven combined with a tuna sauce; then the Cervere leek omelettes and the Langhe cheese with pistachios or the Robiola presented on a bed of hazelnuts. The handmade pasta is a feather in the cap of the restaurant: ravioli, gnocchi, panzerotti and tajarin. Among the second courses beef cheek Braised with Barolo, Rabbit and Lamb. In season mushrooms, truffles and snails from nearby Cherasco. Often the restaurant offers themed menus with Bagna Cauda, Mixed Fried, Boiled and Finanziera. Good locally produced cheeses and well-made desserts.
