Bruna Cane.

Bruna Cane is forty-seven years-old, and
has spent the majority of the past twentyseven
in the kitchen – the kitchen of I
Caffi, to be precise.
What she says about herself
“I offer creatively re-elaborated regional
cuisine. In autumn, I prefer game, white
Alba truffles and mushrooms; in spring, I
pay more attention to aromatic herbs; in
summer, vegetables.
Our bread, breadsticks, pasta, and small
pastries are all artisanally produced.”

A STROLL THROUGH
Cassinasco: the Santuario dei Caffi (Caffi
Sanctuary), an unusual white structure with a
tall central cupola that holds some one-hundred
ex-votos from the 19th century through the
present. The church, situated on the road that
runs along the ridge between Cassinasco and
Loazzolo, dates back to the early 20th century,
and stands on the site of an ancient votive post
that was subsequently knocked down. Climbing
to the top, the view spans the entire range of the
Alps, with the Monte Viso isolated in the
background as a point of reference.
