Eataly
Adjacent to the congress centre is the Slow Food Movement’s ‘supermarket’, Eataly. This vast converted factory now houses a staggering array of Slow Food–affiliated food and beverages, with a separate area for each, including cheeses, breads, meats, fish, pasta, chocolate and much more. The best time to visit is around 12.30pm to 2.30pm, when each area has its own little restaurant serving lunch. There’s also a high-end restaurant here, for which you’ll need to book ahead.

McArthur Glen
McArthur Glen...doesn't sound very Italian, does it? OK, so it's part of a European designer discount chain, but don't let that stop you. Shopping-til-you drop is a universal activity, after all. And when you've got names like Versace, Guess and Diesel in the one spot, selling last season's stock at bargain prices, there's just one word for it...bellissimo!

Bertolini & Borse
You can't go to Italy and come away without buying at least one pair of shoes. So why not do it in style at this legendary store, established in 1923 and located in Turin's most fashionable shopping street? Besides high quality (and sometimes quirky) footwear, it stocks handbags, clothing and accessories to satisfy the most demanding style-fiend.
