Alla Pace in Prato Carnico, Italy – Authentic Sauran Cuisine with a Michelin Bib Gourmand

Alla Pace, a family-run restaurant in the mountain village of Sauris, has been a fixture of Prato Carnico’s dining scene for years. The Schneider family’s kitchen draws on the rich culinary heritage of the area, where Italian, Friulian, and Austrian influences have mingled for centuries. The result is a menu of simple, genuine dishes that are elevated by a touch of originality.

The restaurant’s approach is rooted in the traditions of the Sauran people, a community with a distinct cultural identity. Recipes passed down through generations are reinterpreted with a modern sensibility, creating food that feels both familiar and surprising. The dining room reflects this warmth, offering a setting that is welcoming without pretension.

Since 2007, Alla Pace has earned a place in the Michelin guide, a recognition of its consistent quality and value. The Michelin Bib Gourmand award highlights the restaurant’s ability to deliver good quality cooking at a reasonable price, making it a standout destination for those seeking authentic Italian cuisine in the Friuli Venezia Giulia region. An interesting wine list complements the food, with selections that pair well with the robust flavors of the mountains.
