ITALY PIEDMONT

TRAVEL TIPS Welcome to Piedmont

If you are in Gattinara – which itself isn’t a particularly glamourous town – or the surrounding area be sure to taste the local speciality: locally grown risotto rice (Vercelli is just down the road) cooked with parmesan, onion, garlic and a whole bottle of Gattinara. We had this at a charming family trattoria and hotel, Locando Villa Cavalleri . If you are staying in Barolo, Hotel Reva just outsideMonforté D’Alba is a wonderfully relaxing place with excellent food too. We were too busy tasting wine but there is even a golf course! Repubblica di Perno is an excellent little bistro in Perno, south of Castiglione Falletto and east of Bussia. If you are nearer Barbaresco or in the Langhe hills east of Alba, then dinner in La Ciau del Tornavento is amust with a wine list so long that it took hours to determine what to drink! Tom Meade
