Locanda da Peiu
Only the best and freshest local ingredients are used at Locanda da Peiu, located 3km from the town centre, but within an easy five-minute bus ride (ask for schedules when you book). The €35 set menus are outstanding value, including antipasti, first and second plates, dessert and wine. Quality dishes include gnocchi with Castelmagno cheese, served in a hard-baked bread basket.

Arione
Historic chocolatiers include the 1920s Arione, which invented the Cuneesi al Rhum – a large, rum-laced praline wrapped in cellophane. The chocolates came to the attention of Hemingway, who made a detour from Milan en route to Nice in 1954 to try them – there’s a photograph of his visit in the window.

Lo Schiaccianoci
A tiny but affordable place (if you can bag a seat) just off Via Roma that is ideal for small lunchtime taster plates or something more substantial if you’re so inclined. The original wood ceilings and magnolia curtains add intimacy. Try the risotto marinara or the ratatouille.

Osteria della Chiocciola
You can stop by for a glass of wine (from €6) with cheese and salami on the ground floor of this acclaimed Slow Food restaurant. Upstairs, in a buttercup dining room, choose from the handwritten menu’s alchemy of flavours.
