ristorazione — Carpineti · Emilia-Romagna
In the Apennines of Reggio Emilia, in Carpineti, where the mountains close the horizon to the south, Alma builds a double proposition: gourmet fish and pizza, under the same sign, with the same care.
Carpineti is a name in the Apennines of Reggio Emilia, set high above the plain. Here, on via Montevalestra, Alma's sign marks an unexpected boundary: the one between the mountain visible outside the door and the sea encountered inside, on the plate. Two registers in a single place, one coherent proposition.
The dining room at Alma hosts two distinct vocations without either diminishing the other. Those seeking pizza find an articulated offering rooted in tradition; those choosing fish enter a gourmet journey that selects raw materials far from the territory but treated with the same care. The duality is not a compromise: it is the project.
In the kitchen, two working grammars coexist. On one side, the discipline of pizza, with its leavening times and the reading of the oven. On the other, the preparation of gourmet fish, which demands a rigorous cold chain and a different technique. Holding both together, in the Apennine hinterland, is a precise choice.
A place that brings the sea to altitude, with two distinct registers and a single measure of care. The page tells it all.
