27/12/2025: MORE THAN LUNCH: A RETURN TO OUR ROOTS AT LA MAGIONE ​⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ ​We chose Chef Paolo's La Magione in Olivola for our annual cousins' get-together, and we couldn't have made a better choice. We were looking for a place that was logistically close, yet had a deep and authentic soul. ​As soon as we crossed the threshold, the atmosphere enveloped us: for us, it was like instantly stepping back into the tavern of our grandmother's farmhouse. Chef Paolo has created an atmosphere reminiscent of home, where tradition is enhanced by excellent ingredients. ​Lunch was a journey through the flavors of the region: fragrant mushrooms, a masterfully cooked braised beef with polenta, and, to finish on a sweet note, a panna cotta with zabaglione that alone was worth the trip. All accompanied by a carefully curated local wine list that best reflects our land. ​We are united by distance, but always close at heart, and this lunch was our sacred ritual. Like a tree that needs new sap every year, gathering here has allowed our roots to grow and strengthen. While life outside is chaotic with professional commitments, at the tables of the Magione, time has stood still, allowing our "cousinhood" to shine once again. ​A special thank you to the Chef: his cuisine nourishes the body and reawakens memories. We will definitely return for our next appointment. Because here, we truly feel at home.
