Chef Luca Varone's cuisine is a summary of his past experiences and a reflection of the place where it is served, Ristorante Guarini. This restaurant pays homage to the city's rich history, and that of its most famous architect, while bringing it into the contemporary world, thanks to design elements that reflect the lines of Guarino Guarini's most popular work, the Chapel of the Holy Shroud. Thus, in a restaurant that is Turin through and through but with a distinctive personality that shines through, Chef Varone's cuisine finds itself firmly rooted in Piedmontese tradition while calmly exploring creative horizons that are both fun and balanced.
His menu alternates traditional classics (not just Piedmontese, as the chef enjoys drawing inspiration from Italy's rich gastronomic culture), such as the succulent veal grissinopoli, with dishes that have a particularly strong contemporary touch, as do the chef's personal flair, such as crispy sea bass cime and carpione—a reinterpretation of the classic recipe used to preserve fish in vinegar.
