Enjoy Elba & The Tuscan Archipelago 2023

tradizione, anche se rivisitato in chiave moderna. Piatti forti sono
l’astice, l’argosta e tutti i crostacei, gli spaghetti allo scoglio, la frittura
appena pescata. Anche se domina il pesce la carta prevede
piatti per vegetariani e celiaci. Lo staff, ben collaudato dopo anni
di “stagioni” passate insieme, è coetano dei giovani proprietari, Il
modo giusto per tenere lo stesso passo e fare squadra. A partire
dal maitre Christian che si dedica in particolare al Ristorante Marinellina.
Per la sua passione e competenza sceglie i vini, insieme
a Federico, marito di Beatrice che lo fa per mestiere, assicurando
alla cantina, oltre che alla cucina, prodotti di qualità e andando a
ricercare bottiglie particolari, di piccoli produttori interessanti.
Sono molti i clienti che frequentano il Marinella da quando erano
bambini: comprensibile. Si torna sempre nei luoghi dove ci si
sente a casa.
HOTEL MARINELLA & RISTORANTE MARINELLINA
Half-way along the promenade of Marciana Marina, the
Hotel Marinella stands out as the only one in the village
that overlooks the sea. From the flowered balconies you
can enjoy spectacular sunsets and the sound of the waves
and the authentic scent of the island wafts in through the
windows.
From their grandfather Francesco who originated from
Amalfi and founded the Marinellina restaurant in the 50s,
the Torino family inherited the talent for hospitality. Having
travelled on the great ocean liners as chef, he had brought
international cuisine to the town, attracting many protagonists
of the jet set of those years to the island. With the
help of grandmother Iris, he opened the first rooms on the
terrace of the restaurant. Today it has 58 delightful rooms
equipped with every comfort and facilities for every need,
even for families.
There is a beautiful garden and swimming pool for periods
of relaxation. The new energy comes from Francesco’s three
granddaughters, Benedetta, Federica and Beatrice, together
with Francesco, Alberto’s son. His sister Valentina, although
she has another job, does not mind helping out when needed.
Then it will be the turn of their children: Sveva, the eldest,
already gives a hand in the summer. Today, in addition
to the Hotel, the young Torinos have relaunched the Marinellina,
assisted by Cristian, Roberto and Federico along
with a tried and tested young staff that work well together
like a family. Their signature dishes are spiny and clawed
lobsters and all shellfish, spaghetti with seafood, freshly
caught fish popped in the fryer. Although fish dominates,
the menu does include dishes for vegetarians and celiacs.
Many guests have been coming to the Marinella since they
were children: understandable, they always return to the
places where they feel at home.
