Il Comm. Ensale

Where we are now ?
We are in a wonderful place, very close to the border with France, in the western part of Piemonte, in Val Chisone.
And we are in a sweet and magical hamlet of Usseaux. Borgata del Laux is its name and we will never forget it after we have been here, even for few days.
This little lake of the Alps transfers to us its sweet way and suggests to us to live in a quiet and calm way, enjoying the life, sip by sip, day by day.
What overlooks this small lake is the big rock named Rocca del Laux.
The way to spend the days is very simple and very good for our health: walks along the beautiful paths which fills our eyes with beauty sceneries until they cannot become more fulfilled.
Our D&B is D&B LAGO LAUX.
This D&B could not exist without the enthusiasm and the expertise of a very nice and friendly couple: Marinella and Gianfranco, both always available to help you by suggesting you the best with a true smile on their lovely faces.
The Bed part consists of two rooms.
The Dinner part is very characteristic and cute.
The specialties are the dishes of the local cucina occitana.
As antipasti do not miss peperoni con bagna caoda.
As first course do not miss polenta con bagna d’infern. This breed of polenta is very particular; it is named ottofile.
As second course my suggestion is lingua al giardino.
The wine is local, its name is Ramie.
You cannot finish your dinner without the local dessert called bonnet.
A delicious walk along the sweet lake, and then . . . . good night !

We, along with owners Walter and his wife Gisella, are celebrating ten years of the renewal of the one plus century old FLIPOT
We are in Torre Pellice, the focal point of the valley western Turin, named Valli Valdesi.
The cooking is driven from the seasons and from what the mountains of this valley can offer to the local people who have lovingly learned from over the years.
And, no doubt, Walter and Gisella love their valley and their mountains.
Meats and the local cheeses only coming from these mountains are very particular and therefore do not miss in summer the cheese called Seiras del Fen. Also the honey is local and its quality is excellent.
In this period their smart proposal is the menù degustazione della Tradizione delle Valli Valdesi.
It is outstanding ! Listen !
LA TROTA DELLA VAL PELLICE ALLE DIVERSE COTTURE
and TARTRA’ TRADIZIONALE PIEMONTESE IN SALSA DI ACCIUGHE are the two antipasti.
GNOCCHETTI DI GIUNCA’ ALLE PICCOLE VERDURE AL PROFUMO DI TIMO SERPILLO is the delicious first course.
Then you go on with CARRE’ DI AGNELLO NOSTRANO COTTO NEL FIENO MAGGENGO with PATATE ALLA CENERE and, not yet finished, you go on with FORMAGGI VALLIGIANI.
The dessert is CROSTATINA DI RABARBARO DEI PILON.
The full cost of this gorgeous offering, exclusive of wine is 80 euro.
What Walter and Gisella opened few years ago is very smart: they created a branch of FLIPOT at a very short distance from the main restaurant; its name is La Crota dl’Ours, whose meaning is “The Cellar of the Bear”.
At La Crota d’Ours it is possible to dine in a nice casual (and less expensive) way and almost always as it is open also for grogeous take away solutions.
The quality is the same of the main restaurant and it is very high.
The Bed part is very charming and it is very sweet and comfortable to rest in such a quiet place.
