The Scannabue gastronomia, or deli, opened in 2020 as a natural extension of the restaurant of the same name and rapidly came to the fore as a favourite place for lovers of Piedmontese food to shop. It consists of a counter inside the historical old establishment where the flavours and quality – from the choice of ingredients to the sedulous care in the preparation of dishes that have made the restaurant famous – take on a second life. The takeaway menu is a journey among the great Piedmontese classics: from anchovies in parsley sauce to tajarin and plin with a three roast filling, from tonno di coniglio (salad of shredded rabbit), vitello tonnato and tongue with tomato and chilli sauce, to bonet for dessert. There are also occasional “digressions” outside the region with the likes of seven-layer lasagna bolognese.
The charcuterie counter features delicacies such as culatta, an aged ham, cecina, a chickpea flour pancake, and a tempting Spanish smoked ham. The product range is rounded off by a selection of cheeses (as many as 40 in the winter) to satisfy even the most discriminating palate. Eight hundred labels reproduce the restaurant’s prestigious wine list and are all available for direct purchase. Open from Monday to Saturday from 10am to 7pm.
