Villa Crespi ** San Giulio di Orta
I had to dinners at 2 Michelin star restaurant Villa Crespi. Chef Antonino Cannavacciuolo is a TV-star.
Booking wasnīt easy as I first got a call they only had a place on their waitlist. When I told them as a guest at the hotel I expect availability they appologized that they didnīt know Iīm a hotel guest. My table was confirmed. When I asked later for a table at the second evening they confirmed it woudnīt be a problem.
The first evening we ate at the wintergarden which is a nice room.
They offer 2 tasting menus. The 5 course costs 150 , the 7 course 190 . For the first dinner we choosed the 5 course, I additionally took a cheese course (20 )
The dinner was good. I canīt say it was over the top but good 2 star level.
After the dinner we were asked if we had masks. We were surprised and had to deny as we had left them at our room. They provided us masks and we learned About the reason. They showed us the kitchen which is the biggest in a 2 or 3 star I ever saw.
During the second dinner we met some "old friends", even as we were seated this timein another room and took the "big" tasting menu. Personally I found it slightly better than the day before, again very good level.
I found our dinners very enjoyable, some more Italian restaurants will follow over the next weeks.
