Vacations in Aosta Valley – Typical restaurant

Restaurant La Gran Becca

The restaurant "la Gran Becca" in Antey St. Andre' (Ao), distant a few km from Saint Vincent, and at the foot of the majestic Matterhorn, is a typical restaurant, true to the local architecture.

Inside, a nice environment offers 30 places to table and further 40 in the tavern.

In the external area, a large garden surrounded by flowers and trees, is the best to have dinner immersed in the green space and then to relax on comfortable deck-chairs at the Matterhorn’s shade, or for a romantic supper by candle-light.

The cuisine is inspired by the peasant tradition of the Aosta Valley and Canavese.

Dishes as “Polenta taragna” with game meat, fresh pasta with hare sauce or “porcini” mushrooms, salt meat as “boudin”, “salsiccetta di cinghiale”, “motzetta”, “jambon de bosses”, “lardo D'Arnad”, “coppa al ginepro”, are the prelude to the degustation of herb or seasoned cheese and “fontina”, to be coupled with pear sauce with mustard.

Dishes of learnedly grilled meat, “cervo in civet”, “bistecca valdostana”, “bollito”, “bagna caoda”, “tomini freschi”.
