When Antonio Santini’s grandparents opened the Pescatore in 1926, it was a small family restaurant. Today it is one of the most renowned restaurants in Italy. Between Cremona and Mantua, in the Parco dell’Oglio nature reserve, family members share the tasks. In the kitchen, Nadia and Giovanni prepare refined, generous cuisine: lobster terrine with caviar or the renowned tortelli di zucca, with butter and Parmigiano Reggiano, a recipe perfected and handed down over three generations. In the dining room, Antonio, Alberto and Valentina create a warm atmosphere and uncork their best bottles – grands crus from France and Italy.

Our commitments

Encouraging children’s healthy eating habits and adopting a circular system in the kitchen: two challenges assimilated into daily life.
After meeting with diabetic children, Giovanni, the fourth generation in the Santini family to take over this property, decided to play an active part in awareness campaigns for children suffering from food-related diseases. He now shares the values of the property (flourishing in the South Oglio nature reserve), introducing the children to organic, local produce. In the kitchen, fine ingredients are prepared to their best and the leftovers used to feed animals on the estate or for compost to fertilize the soil in the vegetable garden, helping to grow the lovely vegetables served in the restaurant.
