South Tyrol, Restaurants: Contamina

In the idyllic garden of the Parkhotel Laurin in Bolzano, a masterful symbiosis of nature, architecture and exquisite cuisine unfolds at ConTanima. The former greenhouse, now a light-flooded glass pavilion, creates an atmosphere of harmony in which chef Dario Tornatore combines his international influences with South Tyrolean roots. Each dish is a flavourful journey, inspired by Tornatore’s stops in France, London, Bahrain and Saudi Arabia, and reflects his passion for fermentation, smoking and intense flavours. Sustainably and locally sourced ingredients take centre stage, harmoniously accompanied by carefully curated wines from the Laurin wine cellar – an experience that will entice foodies and nature lovers alike.
