ristorazione — Verzuolo · Piemonte
In the hills of the Cuneo area, in Verzuolo, an osteria brings the whole of Italy to the table: the Sardinian and Marche roots of Roberto Marongiu meet the Piedmont that adopted him, and the result is a cuisine of character unlike any other.
In Verzuolo, in the foothills of the Cuneo area, Roberto Marongiu has built his own home far from Sardinia: Sardinian by birth and Piedmontese by choice, he is both host and cook. Crossing the threshold of Osteria Cicconi means entering a place where hospitality is not a service but a way of being, recognisable at first glance.
The dining room is warm, comfortable, familiar: the setting that guests describe as truly beautiful is never formal. On TheFork the venue scores 9.1 out of 10 for atmosphere, and the figure is palpable in the air: it is the kind of place where you sit down and forget you were ever in a hurry. A carefully curated wine list completes the picture.
From the kitchen come agnolotti plin (a small Piedmontese stuffed pasta) with truffle from the Marche, linguine with sea urchin, fried calamari and prawns, fried Ligurian anchovies, vitello tonnato with a house-made sauce. Sardinia arrives with pecorino and seadas: a cuisine that travels across Italy without losing precision of gesture, built on top-quality ingredients.
