So,
whoever is from those sides and decides to stay for eating, after
lunch, won't be abletodo without, visiting to the
Usato&Usato Vecchio Baule, immersing onself in an atmosphere
from the taste retrò, for going to shoot of other epoches
obiects, or to spend the various rooms furnished with furniture
of contemporary style for to do house, uniting so to do shopping
and pick the palate with successful gastronomic remarking.
Infact to eat at the Fornace
means to find again the taste of the foods of atine of the Valcamonica
tradition, without renounciting the pleasure to taste any daring
"combination," but always prepared with measure and wisdom.
Take for example the "soft
pancake of shrimps with to the ginger and sesame", or the "vol
au vent of polenta and stockfish with the local black truffle",
and we will have two of most original at in not only of fish dishes
of the chef Sergio Ducoli, after have graduated at Alberghiero Institute
of Darfo who has worked not only in any famous restaurants of Garda
Lake, (like The Griffon or The Still of Gold), but also at the Hotel
Prince of Savoia in Milan, like Partie Chef and at the Hotel Rialto
in Gastaad, famous Swiss sky station. |

But Ducoli
is clever also with the meat, like shows the his "Lombatina
of veal marinated with herbs and sweet sheep cheese" and the
medallion of beef with the red of Franciacorta "La Fornace". And that to of the first varieties
of which one, particularly, brings again us to traditional kitchen
of the place: the "casoncelli" a kind of stuffed "ravioli"
of the Valcamonica? «the territorial characteristics of our
valley - comment at the right time Belingheri - and the traditional
reservation of hits inhabitants have allowed to preserve particular
culinary elaborations that elsewhere have gone lost.
To repropose today these particular
tastes means from a side to rejuvenate the tradition memory and,
from the other, to answer to the request and more and more increasing
in the consumer of genuineness, quality and tastes from the ancient
taste». An ancient taste that finds again in all those typical
products due to the morphological characteristics of this territory,
including Iseo lake, Adamello glacier and Moro Lake from volcanic
origin, like the cheese "bagoss", the "fatulì",
the black truffle of the Valcamonica, the by-products from the chestnuts,
the "casoncelli".
Even the Valcamonica wine, during
the Veneta-republic dominion from Veneta Republic, was transported
up to Venice and here drunk, for its excellent quality, from the
nobility of the time. |

"The
tradition of this valley - continuous Belingheri - is a safe whose
combination stays in the way to propose and acknowledge, like modern
actors of the refreshment, principles and teachings that draw origin
from the recent and past history until to go up again to the ancient
Camuni, spending through the Romans who in Valcamonica created references
for the whole alpine arc, spreading the cultivation of chestnuts
and grape».
The Valcamonica, as we told, owes,
in fact, its fame to the Camuni, ancient population that, before
being subdued from the Romans, has expressed her culture through
the famous incisions of rock-art.
Natural that an inheritance of such
made inspires an entrepreneurial class that plays much on the side
"cultural" of its offer. The environment of Central European
inspiration of our restaurant - Belingheri comments - is the fruit
of the continuous wandersing of its devisers, who have known to
gather and conjugate sprouts, tendencies, originality and tradition
of different origin." Like of different origin are also the
labels of the wine cellar, rich of Italian proposals, but also of
Australian, Southafrican, Californian, Uruguayan, Chilean wines
and other still.
