THE RESTAURANT-SHOP
The former animal stable, with truss vault and stone walls is an intimate and welcoming environment, thanks to its dual nature as a shop and tasting room, heated by a pellet stove during the winter period.
The surrounding shelves, in addition to containing the processed products of the farm and wines, are enriched with books and magazines related to the territory, agriculture, and nature, and are available to diners.
The room is equipped with WiFi service and bathroom facilities and is usually set up with only three tables of 4 seats each, but can accommodate a maximum of 15 diners.
Fresh, made-to-order dishes
In the kitchen, we follow nature’s own rhythm: zero-kilometer ingredients, locally sourced products, and dishes that change with the seasons, inspired each day by what the garden has to offer, to bring to the table an authentic, simple, and honest cuisine
FOR SPECIAL OCCASIONS
The winter garden
The cultivation area with raised garden beds is embellished by a wrought iron and glass winter garden, with soft, floral shapes, that speaks of an era of sequined evening gowns, elegant hairstyles, and gallant soirées.
Its name is Edvige, a tribute that Chiara and Stefano wanted to pay to their Varese origins. In fact, Edvige Mrozowska, an actress, writer, and explorer of Polish origin who lived between the 19th and 20th centuries, was the creator of the eclectic garden that still surrounds Villa Toeplitz in Varese, her home and that of her husband Giuseppe. The fragrances of the nearby cultivations blend with the aromas of the medicinal herbs, creating a truly unique environment where you can admire the colors of the nearby vegetable garden and forest during the day and the starry skies at night, becoming children again and watching the dance of fireflies in early summer.
The greenhouse can be used from late April to late September, as it is not heated and has a maximum capacity of 10 diners.
The garden shed
The pleasure of
being outdoors
The large flat garden in front of the two b&b rooms is the ideal place during the summer. The former pigsty, consisting of a small barn with terracotta roof tiles open on three sides, is always set up with a table and 4 chairs, and can accommodate up to 10 diners.
Moreover, during the fine weather, guests can enjoy the original formula of the apericnic: sitting on the grass, they will savor a platter of traditional cured meats from Piacenza and Parma, different ages of mountain Parmigiano Reggiano paired with products from our farm.
Cushions, a basket with tablecloth, ceramic plates, metal cutlery, glass cups, water, and a bottle of wine will be provided, from among the different labels.
