Locanda Merlino In Bosnasco

10/04/2026: Excellent gourmet cuisine in the center of Casteggio. The restaurant is easy to find and has plenty of parking. Inside, the atmosphere is warm and intimate, yet not overly formal. There are just a few tables, and guests are served and pampered with the utmost care. Chef Farina personally takes care of presenting the menu to the table, with patience and dedication. Here, you can try traditional dishes revisited and/or presented in a new way, as well as Japanese-inspired fusion dishes, accompanied by the finest Oltrepo wines. I've eaten here at least four times in the last few years and have never been disappointed. Highly recommended! Here in the photo you can see a small selection of dishes that impressed me: -Braised venison, polenta, and vegetables -Duck breast with orange and pink pepper -Tuna "tonnato" with sesame seeds -Gnocchi with diced fresh tuna, extra virgin olive oil, and pine nuts -Celeriac escalope, cheese, and balsamic vinegar -Espresso tiramisu with a hint of saffron -Creme diplomatica, meringue, red fruit coulis, mint
