22/06/2025: A true gem in the heart of San Salvario, Le Putrelle turned out to be the perfect choice for our dinner with friends. The setting, with its vaulted ceilings that recall 19th-century architecture, creates a simple yet elegant and welcoming atmosphere, ideal for spending a pleasant evening in company.
But the real strong point, without a shadow of a doubt, is Piedmontese cuisine. I found a gastronomic proposal that enhances the traditions of the area with authentic flavors and raw materials of the highest quality. The idea of being able to choose between "cit" (small) and "gros" (large) portions is brilliant and allows you to taste more specialties without feeling heavy.
We started with an exceptional Misto della Sinoira, a true palette of Piedmontese flavors: from Russian salad to green tomini, from anchovies in green bagnetto to old-fashioned veal with tuna sauce, every bite was a hymn to tradition. The "la Granda" Fassone tartare, tender and tasty, was another revelation.
Among the first courses, the agnolotti del plin were simply perfect, cooked to perfection and filled with an enveloping flavor. And what about the braised beef in Barolo? A meat that melted in the mouth, enhanced by the intense aroma of the wine, a true masterpiece of Piedmontese cuisine.
The service was impeccable: courteous, attentive and never intrusive, helping to make the evening even more special. Even the selection of wines, with an eye to small producers, fits perfectly with the philosophy of the place.
In short, Le Putrelle is a culinary experience that I highly recommend to anyone who wants to immerse themselves in the authentic flavors of Piedmont, in a pleasant atmosphere and with a truly excellent quality-price ratio. We will definitely be back!
22/06/2025: Ate here for two weeks straight (work-related booking) and tried pretty much everything on the (regularly) rotating menu. Simple piemontese food elevated to perfection and friendly service as well. I’ll be back!
