La Dispensa De I Balocchi - PIACENZA

Best restaurant, very friendly staff. It was a real pleasure to eat dinner . All the food was very tasty, I had salami for antipasti, pork chin and lava cake. I’m strongly recommend this place! You won’t be disappointed!

A new trendy restaurant in a old town , interesting menu , some lack of flavor but mainly very good dishes, nice wine list. To recommend.

I have been here before and was very impressed for the innovative approach to the cuisine and ingredienst. I have been again for dinner on a very hot summer evening and tried the excellent culatello and pork shoulder from Massimo Spigaroli, the top producer of this cured meat. The portion was not generous, but after all these ingredients are expensive. I was then attracted by a slowly braised veal cheek, advertised 'with potatoes ' and something else. The meat was succulent, very tender and excellent, but the 'potatoes ' were reduced to a kind of whitish broth, not particularly tasty either. No other vegetable was visible. And this is, in my view a mistake. In fact when I asked for some vegetables I was told that the asparagus had passed its sell-by date and therefore had been condemned. Fair enough, but there are still plenty of good vegetables on the market, and a good restaurant should provide a good selection.The dessert was good, and the choice of wines reasonable (but more can be done in this department). To sum up, I was more impressed the first time, and one of my guests also enjoyed an aubergine flan very much, but I am a little concern that this pleace which has very good potential may be slackening.

Un ambiente accogliente e raccolto, materie prime di stagione e di prim'ordine unitamente alla bravura di Chef Luciano. Ho trascorso una splendida...

TOP.. Ottimo ambiente e servizio eccellente! Beh che altro dire.. La cucina è davvero impeccabile!
