La Rei Natura by Michelangelo Mammoliti

Serralunga d'Alba has long been wine country, and the cooking here honors that lineage with a contemporary sensibility that's earned serious international recognition. The approach is both rooted and inventive, translating Piedmontese ingredients through a lens of restrained creativity. It's the kind of meal that feels considered without being fussy, ambitious without losing warmth—worth the detour into these hills.
