Osteria del Vergante

A place we found by chance on our way from Invorio to the shores of Lake Maggiore. Found it on Google, and intrigued by the positive reviews, I decided to contact them to find out if they were equipped for gluten-free. When the answer was yes, without hesitation, we decided to book for the evening. The restaurant inside appears rustic and welcoming, we sat outside under a beautiful open roof overlooking the small, very well-kept garden. We took the Vergante starter for two, definitely worth trying, very good. Then we continued with two second courses, one of meat, sliced ​​scottona with caramelized apples, and one of lake fish (my husband was curious to try it). Both dishes very, very good. We decide to end the dinner with desserts, I chose the Bonet, a typical Piedmontese dessert and my husband the caramel panna cotta. Both delicious and enjoyable. I don't normally drink coffee in the evening, but I couldn't miss the opportunity to have it served to my table directly from a giant Moka. This last gem makes you feel truly at home. Surely if we are in the area, we will return to taste and savor other dishes, considering the inviting aromas coming from the nearby tables such as that of the ragù or the sight of desserts such as the tiramisu which will have been superlative, given the number of diners who ordered it. Also highly recommended for celiacs.
