The typical Valtellina cuisine
Discover the authentic flavors of the typical Valtellina cuisine in our ” à la carte” menu.
Valtellina and Valchiavennasca cuisine is based on the use of few and genuine ingredients and is highly appreciated also by the most demanding palates. The simple and perfect harmony of its flavours has always been its distinguishing feature.
Its gastronomic tradition, compared to other regions, is not very rich, as the Valtellina region is characterized by a mountainous territory and has therefore based its economy on agriculture and pastoralism for centuries. This type of activity allows the production of the main ingredients used to prepare all traditional dishes: milk, butter, cheese, and buckwheat flour.
Examples of typical ingredients include: polenta taragna, pizzoccheri, and sciatt.
