26/05/2026: 🇮🇹 I Castagni 🌟 1 MICHELIN Star 🍴 Classic Cuisine, Country Cooking 🎗️ I Castagni is a hidden gem in the small town of Vigevano. Access requires a private car or taxi to navigate through treacherous, narrow streets – a surprisingly quiet location for a 4-star hotel and a 1-MICHELIN Star restaurant. Opened in 1989, the restaurant has long held its prestigious 1-MICHELIN Star. Its name translates to "chestnut tree." The main dining area is divided into several sections, decorated in a retro style with antique furniture and paintings by local artists on the walls. All tables are covered with white tablecloths, enhancing the luxurious atmosphere. Don't miss the extensive wine list of over 600 labels, all offered at reasonable prices. 🎗️ I Castagni is a classic restaurant undeniably worth a visit. Each dish offers easily accessible flavors. Moreover, the prices per dish are almost comparable to typical mid-range restaurants. Interested diners will need to make reservations by phone only. For those who want to relax immediately after checking in, they can choose to book one of the hotel's six rooms, which start at approximately 5,000 baht. 📃 À LA CARTE Sturgeon meatball stuffed with lobster and pork guanciale, steamed and smoked sturgeon, Swiss chard in “zimino” style, black truffle caviar (25 €) Dedicated to Foie Gras: marinated goose breast and smoked Foie Gras, Foie Gras terrine with dried fruit and mustard, Foie Gras and apricot bonbon, Foie scallopine (32 €) Black ravioli filled with peas, served with a white sauce made from cuttlefish and mussels, and seafood broth (22 €) Handmade semolina pasta featuring two classic regional flavors: black garlic, olive oil, and chili, and cacio e pepe with lime (22 €) Grilled sea fish Fillet (depending on the market), small pasta couscous creamed with Liguria trombetta zucchini, octopus and its own mayonnaise (30 €) Slow-roasted suckling pig with its crispy skin, smoked eggplant, turmeric-flavored celery root purée, and a dry Marsala reduction (30 €) Pigeon in two preparations: roasted thigh and wing, grilled breast, mixed cultivated mushroom stew, pickled cherries, consommé, and liver ravioli (33 €) Golden apple puff pastry served with green apple gelato and Calvados, Milanese-style apple charlotte (14 €) Our dessert dedicated to chestnuts: soft chocolate and chestnut cake, Monte Bianco, chestnut ice cream, chestnut biscuit, persimmon sauce (14 €) 📌 Score: 👍 Superb classic Italian restaurant, great value for money.
