Trattoria dai Bercau
"In Verduno, this is inexpensive, old school, not fancy, with a set menu and serving from platters. They have really good wine too."

Locanda dell’Arco + Trattoria La Coccinella
"These two restaurants are a little off the beaten path and definitely worth the trip. Locanda dell’Arco is located in Cissone and Trattoria La Coccinella is in Serravalle Lange. Both spots are old fashion, traditional restaurants with elegant and very good food -- real, old school food. They have very good wine lists."
