Piazza Duomo

Alba


Enrico Crippa's Michelin-starred restaurant is now in its second decade and is considered one of Italy's best. Dreamlike frescoes by Francesco Clemente fill the fleshy pink dining room, which is otherwise a bastion of elegant restraint. On the plate, expect the high concept play beloved of Italian fine-dining chefs, along with spectacular local – and some homegrown – produce (this is white truffle country).

Four elegant rooms (from €240 a night) are available for restaurant guests who just want to fall in a heap after a long night of degustation dining.
