A charming and bright location for the restaurant started by the chef Paola Chiolini and her husband Daniele 5 years ago. A large dining room, modern furnishing, many paintings and artistic objects show the passion of the owners for every artistic expression. You can see it in the very carefully prepared dishes, served in an imaginative and original way, thanks to their experience in the catering that they bought in Milan, where they are present and active. You can start with the appetizers (from 9 to 13 euro), such as the fresh fish tartare with mango or bream cruditè with Sanremo shrimp, flavored with rum and caramelized ginger. The first courses of homemade fresh pasta such as the sea bass ravioli with squid and truffles or the beetroot ravioli with apple slices and shrimp (from 11 to 15 euro). Among the second courses we mention sea bass braid with leek sprouts, cappone and turban umbrine with caramelized chestnuts (from 15 to 20 euro). There is a wide choice for people who love meat and many vegetarian and vegan dishes. The desserts made by the chef are special, such as the caged tiramisù or chocolate mattonella with mint flavored mascarpone. The daily menù is written on the blackboard and offers special dishes, as well as pizzas and focaccias. The warm and friendly atmosphere makes it a nice stop with a really wonderful sea view.
