Since 1996, La Badessa in Turin has stood as one of the last remaining bastions of authentic Piedmontese cuisine. In the kitchen, Chef Ardit Grembi serves as a champion of the culinary and agricultural traditions of local monasteries: special places, preserved from the passage of time, that have shaped the history of the region’s food and wine. Everything here begins with the selection of the finest ingredients, resulting in a cuisine that follows the rhythm of the seasons and brings to the table great classics of the Piedmontese and Turinese traditions. Homemade dishes, just as in the old days, are the secret behind La Badessa restaurant in Piazza Carlo Emanuele II, where the elegance of the interior and the refinement of the ingredients come together to create something truly special.
