If you want to enjoy a 100% authentic Piedmontese experience, Trattoria Bocciofila La Montagnola is a must-visit. Located just a stone’s throw from Casa Femi, it is the ideal choice for anyone looking for a traditional dinner without having to travel too far.
What is a “Bocciofila”? In Italy, and particularly in Turin, the bocciofila originated as a sports club dedicated to the game of bocce. Historically, they have been places for social gathering where different generations come together. Today, many of them house excellent trattorias where you can eat “just like at home”, with generous portions, fair prices and a convivial, simple and very warm atmosphere.
The menu features the great classics of the Turin and Piedmontese traditions.
Absolute Convenience: It is located on Via San Paolo, practically “just round the corner” from Casa Femi. It is the perfect solution for those who want to enjoy a relaxed evening without the stress of public transport or parking.

‘Piola’ is the Piedmontese term for a typical neighbourhood tavern. Historically, it was the meeting place where people would gather for a glass of wine (the ‘quartino’), a game of cards and simple yet flavourful dishes. Today, taverns like “Da Celso” keep this spirit alive: chequered tablecloths, house wine by the glass, generous portions and an atmosphere where it’s easy to strike up a chat with your neighbours at the next table. It offers wholesome dishes at fair prices, staying true to the philosophy of “eating well without too many frills”.
