Locanda Amici Miei In Lirio

20/04/2026: At the top of the Brallo Pass lies an inn that deserves to be recognized as an authentic cultural and gastronomic landmark of the area. More than just a simple hotel and restaurant, it is, as proudly proclaimed on its business card, a true inn, offering a warm, welcoming, and pleasantly retro yet always authentic atmosphere. Its clientele is testament to this: locals, hikers, and travelers mingle effortlessly, creating a lively and authentic atmosphere. The dining areas are spacious and well-organized, while the four simply furnished rooms are comfortable, dignified, and functional, perfect for both a short stay and a base for exploring the area's numerous trails. The cuisine is one of its strengths: solid, regional, and deeply rooted in tradition. Its location, on the border between Lombardy and Emilia-Romagna, is also reflected in its cured meats, including coppa and pancetta Piacentine alongside salami from Varzi. Among the must-try dishes are the tagliolini with wild boar ragù, the veal with tuna sauce, and the pork ribs, so tender and well-cooked you can enjoy them without even using a knife. The service harks back to the tradition of old-time inns, with dishes served by the tray and a willingness to serve, which contributes to an even more convivial experience. The wine list is simple but adequate. The rooms are also a significant added value: they allow you to fully enjoy your dinner without worries, considering that Brallo is about forty kilometers of Apennine roads from the nearest towns. Overall, a highly recommended place, one to return to several times during the season.
