Guida Piemonte a Tavola 2024 - 'Pizzeria of the year' award

November 2023

On 20 November, the presentation event of the 'Piemonte a Tavola 2024' guide was held in Barolo, during which Fuori Tempo was awarded as "Pizzeria of the Year'.

It was a pleasure to share this honour with two great names in Roero food and wine: friend and fellow citizen Davide Palluda (awarded for 'Dish of the Year') and Giampiero Cordero from Priocca ('Sommelier of the Year'). With this triple award, the #Roero proves itself more and more an area of food and wine excellence, not only in carrying on a centuries-old tradition, but also for a 'new' way of understanding cuisine.

The 'Piemonte a Tavola 2024' Guide.

Telling the food and wine excellence of Piedmont. This is the objective of 'Piemonte a Tavola 2024' (in its first year of edition), which aims to (re)discover, province by province, all that is good in Piedmont. A region that has been able to enhance its extraordinary products, its unparalleled wines, its 'hidden' treasures. A region whose culinary customs are rooted in the splendours of the Savoy nobility, and whose restaurants today are as much standard-bearers of a centuries-old tradition as they are modern forerunners of a 'new' way of understanding cuisine.

Published by Post Editori, the Guide is edited by Gianluca Montinaro, historian of ideas and university professor is the author of numerous essays and monographs. Since 2010 he has been a member of the steering committee of the Espresso Guide to Italian Restaurants. He is an AIS sommelier and collaborates with various national newspapers, writing about food and wine.
