Ristorante Vallerana
Here we find excellent local cuisine and can try the experience of searching for truffles with dogs. A fun and relaxing activity, walking in the woods and following the dog and the trifolau, the friendly Franco Novelli, owner of the restaurant. The ambience is comfortable, like classic village trattorias, a guarantee of good food and honest prices. Classically furnished with a large fireplace that warms the room and a corner dedicated to the wine cellar with the best local wines. The dishes are typical of the Monferrato area. You start with hot starters such as crespelle, flan and fondue tartlets, and cold starters such as vitello tonnato and veal carpaccio (15 Euro for the mixed starter). Among the first courses not to be missed are the ravioli, classic or with plin, baked pasta and the ever-present tajarin. (First courses from 5 to 8 Euro). Second courses often include boiled meats, served with precision and speed using the historic trolley that keeps all the meat hot and immersed in its broth. In addition to boiled meat, there are roasts, braised meat, pan-fried rabbit and game (10 to 15 Euro). In season also mushrooms. To finish, home-made desserts such as bonet and tiramisu. Obviously the ‘truffle grating’ is recommended and should be priced separately according to market prices.
