Magorabin – Turin - Italy
This is a really interesting Restaurant because the chef mixes traditional Piedmont products & recipes with innovative cuisine & extravagant foods pairings so..you won’t eat typical Italian food but an innovative reinterpretation of traditional recipes.
In my personal opinion I prefer a traditional approach but I’m sure that if you’ll visit Magorabin you’ll have an interesting food journey.
Please consider that this restaurant is a one star restaurant in 2015 Restaurant Michelin Guide. [if !supportLineBreakNewLine] [endif]
This restaurant is not so big so you’ll find not so much places setting & this gives to the place an hot & cozy atmosphere.
The Staff seems to be really kind & I noticed that are able to understand clients & to move from a formal to an informal approach based on this ability. I think that this is really important to let the customers hair down.
I tasted a nine dishes menu with wines match (lots of them were french wines)
The Chef welcome is about ten testing all of them really curious & very good, in particular I liked very much the peanut mousse & wasabi.
Then the nine dishes were:
Ravioli with cod fish & dried Taggiasca olives
Breaded Lamb with zabaglione & cherry cream
Cod fish cocktail, taggiasca olives & potatoes mousse
Sliced Grilled Fassona Beef (Piedmont Beef) with strawberry & foie gras
Spaghetti Pasta with bread & anchovy
Ravioli with three kind of onions & grana padano cheese cream
Veal with tuna sauce but revisited: veal roll with fresh red tuna (sashimi like) marinated with lime
Coquilles St Jacque with melon & spinach cream
Amberjack with duck speck (speck is deboned, salted and smoked ham) & parmentier cream
For dessert..a great “Passion Lives Here”..Dulcey Chocolate mousse with banana sorbet and passion fruit consommé! Wonderful!
Everything was really interesting & with particular foods combination but also with food decoration based on coffee & cocoa bean, for example!
I think that this could be an attraction in Turin..so don’t lose it!
