Tecnica, forme, passione, la percussione continua degli agrodolci che, oltre a essere divertente, imprime un marchio di fabbrica alla cucina di Andrea Monesi, purosangue della ricerca che, nemmeno trentenne, vince su tutta la linea. A partire, in primis, dalla sfida personale di saper reggere il timone di primo chef nel ristorante dove si è formato, reggendo alla pressione di dover confermare i livelli riconosciuti dalle guide dopo il cambio di cappello in cucina: Andrea ha fatto di più, spezzando la linea di continuità, crescendo e costruendo una propria visione. Tutto è perfetto, a partire da una location che affaccia sul borgo antico d’Orta, un sacello medievale di bellezza e atmosfera, proteso sul lago (e la vista dalla terrazza della Locanda è mozzafiato). A tavola si sussegue la precisione: il coniglio tonnato in due cotture, l’anguilla (uno dei piatti forti), i ravioli ripieni d’ossobuco ma, soprattutto, il risotto con ciuffi d’alghe e gamberi che è un autentico capolavoro. Dolci di fantasia e una cantina superlativa che Sara Orlando ha costruito negli anni.
Technique, shape, passion. The journey of sweet and sour continues which, beyond being fun, has put a trademark stamp on Andrea Monesi’s work. He is dedicated to research and, at not even thirty years old, has been successful with all of his proposals. We begin, first of all, with his personal challenge of competently taking over the reins from the previous chef in the restaurant where he was trained. He was under pressure to confirm the standards recognized by the food guides after the change of hats in the kitchen. Andrea did more by breaking the line of continuity, and growing and constructing his own vision. Everything is perfect, starting with the location that overlooks the antique borgo of Orta, a medieval chapel of great beauty and atmosphere which juts out over the lake (and the view from the Locanda’s terrace is breathtaking). At the table precision reigns: the twice-cooked rabbit with tuna, the eel (one of the trademark dishes), the ravioli stuffed with ossobuco, but especially the risotto with algae and shrimp is an authentic masterpiece. There are creative desserts and a superlative cantina that Sara Orlando has built up over the years.
