About Cugini di Torino
This is one of those fun and simple places that really does its own thing. Suddenly, it’s midnight, and you and your friends just shared 12 oysters and a bottle of Champagne! If you go during the week, it’s not impossible to bump into one of the many winemakers from the Monferrato area.
Cugini di Torino calls itself an “aperitivo ristorante,” offering simple and wine-friendly food. Charcuteries, cheeses and raw seafood are the most popular plates, but there is warm food too.
No regular wine list is available. Instead, you enter and are greeted by shiny wine fridges filled with bottles where prices have been written on with a white marker. Of course, there are plenty of wines from the area, mixed with wines from all over the world. The selection of Champagnes will not leave you disappointed.
A must is to finish up with their Barberatonic – an interesting mix of Barbera Chinata and tonic water.
