At Ristorante Stefano Paganini, our idea of hospitality is constantly renewed. Come and discover “Sintesi”, the new à la carte menu
There are places where time seems to slow down, allowing taste and beauty to take over. Inside the seventeenth-century Castle of Magliano Alfieri, a few steps from the Langhe, our idea of hospitality is renewed. As a restaurant selected by the Michelin Guide, we constantly feel the responsibility to evolve our offering, while maintaining an unbreakable bond with the territory. It is from this reflection, and from listening to the needs of our guests, that our new gastronomic proposal is born.
The new Sintesi Menu: Season, Icons, Journeys
We have chosen to go beyond the traditional concept of a closed tasting menu to embrace a philosophy based on total freedom. Sintesi is our new à la carte menu: an encounter between Chef Stefano Paganini’s thirty years of craft and the freshness of the current season. A curated selection of twelve dishes ranging from land to sea, up to plant-based cuisine.
The goal is to allow those who sit at our table to compose their own gastronomic experience without constraints: from a complete tasting journey to a single, perfect, signature dish. At the center of everything remains the raw material. The territoriality of Roero and Langhe dialogues with ingredients selected from all over Italy, following the rigorous rhythm of nature and the seasons.
“True elegance in the kitchen lies in the essence and respect for the ingredient,” says Chef Stefano Paganini.
“With the Sintesi menu, I wanted to strip away every superstructure. We want our guests to feel free to experience the restaurant as they prefer, choosing a historic dish that represents my journey, or letting themselves be surprised by a fresh ingredient that has just arrived in the kitchen. It is a return to the dishes of our beginnings, to the purity of our origins, revisited and reinterpreted in light of the path taken so far. Once again, the quality of the product and customer satisfaction guide our every choice.“
A Taste Experience in the Castle of Magliano
The Sintesi menu was conceived based on the Chef’s thirty years of experience, but it is firmly tied to the Roero region and the Corte degli Alfieri. A full-fledged gastronomic journey, amplified by the majesty of the location.
During the warmer months, our guests can choose to enjoy dinner in the outdoor dehor, immersed in the tranquility of the Castle park and surrounded by the breeze of summer evenings. For those who prefer the charm of history instead, our frescoed indoor dining room offers an intimate and timeless atmosphere, perfect for romantic dinners or special occasions.
A Occhi Chiusi menu and new à la carte menu: come and discover our proposal
Starting today, alongside our A Occhi Chiusi journey, our guests will find the new “Sintesi” menu. It is a parallel and almost complementary proposal: born from the same ideas of freedom and the same promise of an authentic taste experience, but deeply tied to the roots and professional evolution of the Chef.
Two journeys, one philosophy.
While with the A Occhi Chiusi menu we ask you to completely trust our instinct, with “Sintesi” we hand you a map made of iconic dishes and seasonality, designed to let you best discover the soul and excellence of our territory, guided by your desires.
