Probably The BEST Restaurant in Italy - Piazza Duomo (Enrico Crippa)

[@alexandertheguest]

We would like to clarify the price information about the Coravin system what you can see in the video. We calculated for a complete setup for a restaurant, which includes several gadgets bor both wines and champagnes. A single Coravin system ranges from €129 to €599 (which is their absolute best). Check out their page for more information: www.coravin.com 
(Thank you for everyone who pointed out the misunderstanding!)

[@mick0855]

Winemaker here. Former somm too. I just find the Coravin ineffective for keeping wines. Sure, the wine under coravin argon may not be ‘oxidised’ per-se; however wine left under coravin for over x amount of days still lends a wine with dullness

[@PTNOPOT]

​@@mick0855what's the alternative? Vacu vin seals?

[@panoramaaaaaa]

It also seriously takes out the pleasure in enjoying wine I find… sure you get to sample expensive stuff that they might not want to open, but seeing the wine poured into your glass through a needle, I just find it depressing.

[@NOELTM]

This Channel is what Restaurant reviews should be and I always look forward to them - thank you.

[@DW-lx9wt]

yep, i stumbled upon this channel a month or two ago and its utterly fascinating. the history of the places and chefs at the start of each episode are a superb touch. i also like that if these places are not up to par then Alexander has no problem in letting us know. if only every review(er) was this unbiased and unfiltered.

[@dingledangle265]

ReviewBrah is better.

[@DW-lx9wt]

@dingledangle265 this is such a stupid comment. I realise it's just a troll, but, I'll bite as it adds engagement for the KZbin algorithm. They don't review the same content for a start. I enjoy Reviewbrah too, but, he's in the right place on KZbin. I genuinely think Alexander's content could transition well to TV. There is that much of a gulf in production. It wouldn't be hard to keep going but it would start to look like I don't enjoy Reviewbrah.

[@joshuafoster1772]

What a quick rise to the top! In the brief time you’ve been doing this, you’re already the best restaurant reviewer I’ve seen!

[@pandoe]

Not to mention he fills up the category that almost nobody ever did before: A Dedicated 3* Michelin Restaurant food reviewer/critiques

[@FedorKai]

You know many Food Reviewer on KZbin who can afford 2000 euros bills?

[@tjj2343]

Must concur. I never miss an episode.

I can't wait to be here when he hits 1 million subs and I can say I was here from the start

My god, Alex, how do you find time to enjoy the food? Your direction and editing skills and presentation are first class, worthy of 3 stars . Thank you! .

You really think he directed and edited the videos? Did you hit your head too hard when you were baby ?

[@trivaldelic]

Most likely a professional filming and editing team behind.

It's obvious he's doing it so he can take all these trips to restaurants all over the world and class it all as a business expense, its very smart.

This guy not only give an amazing review on the food but also talk about the front of house and establishment itself .. as well as the wines and give you an insight of where they come from! If I have to review Alex , 10/10

[@euglewz2417]

As a Bangladeshi, I am very delighted to see them respecting our culture. We eat our food with our hands because it is said to create a connection between the food and our soul which makes the food tastes a lot better and so that we handle the food with care.

[@spicesmuggler2452]

I heard the same saying in Indian and Pakistani cuisine when they cook it using their hands as utensiles!

[@AlexandruHerman]

Everyone was eating food with their own hands before the invention of the fork. It's not connection, it's lacking a better tool than your fingers.

[@markclavecin]

Alexander, those were some insane wines I'm so jealous. This was my favorite video of yours yet.

[@euglewz2417]

@@AlexandruHerman Every food doesn't require a fork/spoon/knife and these utensils doesn't make consumption of all types of food easier. Also you can not gauge the temperature or texture of the food with utensils before putting it in your mouth. We didn't have any food in our culture requiring any utensils. Soup or noodles were introduced to us after the development of spice trade and the takeover of the Indian sub-continent by the British. Along with those food, utensils also came into play. But when having our traditional or day to day life dishes we still prefer to eat with our hands. Rice is the main food of our culture and it is just easier for us to mix everything with the rice with our hands. :)

[@papayetto3700]

when it comes to food italians take it seriously ;)

[@frandlehoff]

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experiences with us. Your videos are sophisticated, yet very accessible and not pretentious.

[@joep4847]

I was visiting Alba for my holidays last year and I passed by this restaurant. Unfortunately I couldn't eat there because I can't afford it but for some reason it stayed in my head. Thanks for giving me a look inside, looks absolutely fenomenal! :)

Everything on the plates are just pieces of symphonic art. What a celebration of art!

This channel is truly a hidden gem. Nice to be here while you're still under 100k subs.

[@Enhancedlies]

I am in awe, WOW! Ive never seen anything like this, ever. What an incredible expression of art, and it truly is an art. The tapas style, with all those plates, was just out of this world beautiful. And then i was totally taken off guard by those incredible salads that mimicked bouquets of flowers, so creative. I am putting this on my to do list, i just have to experience this for myself. But without you and your brilliant series here on YT, i would never have known about it. so thank you! :)

[@jordangroff8978]

Food looks incredible, thank you for sharing chef!

[@anaunika1979]

I loved the new format of the videos showing the amount of the bill spent at the restaurant. Sometimes we miss opportunities to visit beautiful places that would probably come out of the budget. Greetings from Buenos Aires, Argentina

[@francescododan9859]

I live 20 minutes away from Alba, so I'm especially glad that you enjoyed Piazza Duomo and your time in Piemonte :) Love your channel btw, you really deserve all the best!!

insane… this has to be my favorite youtube channel. Working in haute cuisine it’s great to see such a costumer with such a true appreciation for out work yet with 0 pretentiousness, very rare Also, my suggestion for a video would be Mugaritz in Spain!!

Your videos are by far the best on KZbin when it comes to high end dining. Well well done Alexander, keep the great work up! Would love to share a meal with you one day 😊

[@RamsyC9]

Love your reviews. I just missed a little of the usual energy you have during the intro sequence. I actually find your current intro where you describe your channel in 2 sentences quite charming for newcomers and fans alike. And it gives a good pacing from the start too. Best

[@OuterGalaxyLounge]

Love how you pointed out how the staff move almost like pantomimes/dancers. Touches like that can elevate a place that's already perfect.

[@rudigersimpson]

This is a great review and I love the way you always show appreciation to the people who attend to you. Also - I never imagined a GLASS of wine costing what I see on your bill at the end. But when I find something nice at the supermarket next time, I'll try to savour it that little bit more.

[@Vii7aL]

I was shocked as well but it's not uncommon for him to mention wines that are a couple thousand a bottle and only 3 glasses per bottle it kind of makes sense

[@sanj1982]

Another homerun. You are doing world class videos, sir. Definitely the highlight of my week in videos

[@OrganicMachoCapitalist]

Alexander, amazing presentation. What a high quality video. So many great aspects. Every time I watch one of your videos I love it. If i may give one constructive tip: try different pacings in the video. Like slow, fast, slow, slow, fast, etc. Now its good but monotone and often too fast. Then viewing will become a melody, like music, which will enrich the video by a lot.

[@murrayr1495]

I started watching on your second or third video and ive only been enjoying them more with each that comes out. Keep up the good work :)

[@michaelchadolias9491]

Personal Opinion: This is one of the most underrated KZbin channels. Always great videos and narration. Keep going on doing more videos!

[@gimmejr]

I don't think you can call it underrated, he has only been doing this for 3 months and already has100k subscribers, and only after 5 days up his latest video already has 150k views.

Wow. Loved this. I loved how he did use Art to influence his food choices. In any way. That one dessert that looked like a piece of rectangular ceramic Art was amazing. So much time and effort into all of this. Loved too how the environment looked. Like you said, even to how the color of the room matched their ties/pocket squares. Again, an eye for detail. Like your eyes! Great video as always. Thank you!

I visited Piazza Duomo in 2016 and it was one of the best meals in my life. Well worth the three stars. The one thing I would say is the service is so professional that it becomes a tad static and lacks a personal touch, which is something I usually like. The barolo menu is incredible, obviously when paired with the local wines.

[@DungNguyen-vo5pg]

great comparison at the end of the video . thanks a lot . the camera is improved , lots of good frame .

[@theoneandonlysoslappy]

What beautiful dishes! I am desperate to try that Andy Warhol inspired dish. Such a contrast between what my eye perceived the texture to be and what was actually revealed by the fork.

[@Renzy_YT]

Alexander: We went with the tasting menu for 290 euros, and the wine pairing for 300 euros. Me: Oh hey thats not too b- Alexander: Our total came to 2,300 euros

[@arthurnor6]

He spends more on krug than the menu and winepairing

[@gilbydog7350]

I admit I gasped at the bill too, considering it was for 2 people.

[@RobertoBestia]

He said he was gonna freestyle it and not go for the wine pairing. I’ve noticed in other videos he often inflates the bill quite substantially with wines and champagnes.

[@cumbriafoodie]

The starters at the beginning were stunning. So much work and presentation.... and wow, so many. The bill..... wow , €1700 for wines , Scary prices.

[@CarstenNRW]

yeah, the wines and champagne are always what you have to look for in the stars restaurants. They often have hundreds of different wines and many of them for more than 500 bucks a bottle. Even in one star restaurants. The menu prices are worth it in my opinion because it's an evening you think about even a year later if you don't do it once a week and there's so much work and perfection behind it but it's hard to justify to pay like 1000 bucks for wine which you can buy for 100 bucks outside the restaurant.

The opening to the menu is just, well, I have never seen anything like that. I'm almost overwhelmed by the sheer number of tasting plates on the table at one time!

[@Bragglord]

Not necessarily a good thing...I personally don't want a dozen plates at once, feels like a buffet.
