The restaurant
Fine dining in Valle Maira
Ristorante Al Bial occupies a fully restored stone house in Borgata Bedale, at Macra, in the heart of Valle Maira. Here Piedmontese cooking meets a creative hand and a close eye on the seasons, with simple thinking behind it: the best ingredients you can find, most of them local, handled with technique and restraint.
A small, quietly elegant dining room, where a meal is the shortest route to understanding these mountains — from the land to the plate.
From the tasting menu to à la carte
There is a tasting menu — «Le nostre proposte» — a vegetarian menu and an à la carte list, with a deep wine list alongside. Catering and finger food can also be arranged for events and special occasions.
Open for lunch and dinner, with a single sitting on some days (Monday dinner only, Tuesday lunch only). Booking is advisable.
Macra and the food of Valle Maira
Macra is one of the villages of the middle Valle Maira, set among stone hamlets, painted sundials and walking trails. The kitchen here works from the valley's own tradition — ravioles, mountain cheeses, toma and Slow Food Presidia produce — which you can read more about under things to do.
