AMORE ZUM ITALIENER: A culinary declaration of love from the Süddeutsche Zeitung newspaper to our "Ricetta della Vita."
“Il Borgo has been serving exquisite cuisine for decades and is constantly reinventing itself [...] It's not just the flan di spinaci with truffles that will make your mouth water.”
— Süddeutsche Zeitung —
An ode to the combination of living room atmosphere and fine dining.
There are awards that you put in a display case, and there are those that touch your heart. The recent article in the Süddeutsche Zeitung definitely belongs to the second category. When the city's most important voice writes about us, we hold our breath for a moment—and then exhale again with a proud smile.
Just being ourselves – hospitality in action
What particularly moves us about the SZ article is that it so accurately captures the essence of who we are. Some people assume that it is difficult to combine a family-friendly "living room atmosphere" with the highest culinary standards. For us, this has never been a question or a balancing act. It is our identity.
The kind words in the article confirm that we are on the right track: we are passionate hosts. At il Borgo, feeling at home and enjoying excellent food go hand in hand. It is the essence of our own "Ricetta della Vita," which not only adorns our dining room as lettering, but also guides our actions every evening: health, happiness, good food, and drink—enjoyed in the company of loved ones.
Quality born of deep conviction
We consider the fact that the article explicitly praised our classics such as Coda di Bue (oxtail) and Flan di Spinaci to be a tribute to our uncompromising selection of ingredients. True "buon mangiare" begins long before it reaches the kitchen: it is the result of years of personal relationships with our producers and suppliers. Whether it's fresh truffles directly from Italy or seasonal products from the region – freshness and origin are the non-negotiable basis of every dish for us.
