The town of Monforte is located in the Piemonte region of Italy known for white truffles, wine (Barolo, Barbaresco, Barbera, etc), cheese, salumi, hazelnuts and many more culinary delicacies. They stock some of the best quality product from local producers in the region in addition to their own products (wine, salumi) and delicious aged meats. If you're visiting Monforte, this is a must! It's the best place to stock up on delicious goodies that are unique to region and truly made at family owned farms. Go there for the best hazelnut creme you'll ever taste. Go there for truffle oils and salts, chocolates to take home to friends. And if you're staying in the area for a while, make sure to make it one of your grocery stops. It's family run and you will see Bruno Roddolo there pretty much every day, except Tuesday, because they're closed along with all the other businesses in the town center.

It helps for sure being surrounded by such amazing produce, but, my mind was blown by the attention to detail and sheer variety of the menu. We (literally) bumped into to chef when we were leaving, he looked like a mad genius which makes sense as you can almost feel his obsessiveness in each and every bite. I'll likely never go back but I don't need to, this one experience will live long in my memory.

The layout and selection of items were very similar to what we're used to back home in Chicago. We stopped in for a late afternoon lunch or perhaps an early dinner, but unfortunately, the meal was underwhelming. My husband ordered the ribs, which arrived overcooked and dry. I had the tortellini, which was just okay and only slightly warm. The waiter was friendly. Perhaps it was just an off day for the kitchen, but overall, the food didn't quite live up to the Eataly name we're familiar with.
