Where to eat in Olbia: the Essenza Bistrot. A Aosta Valley chef in Olbia? Well yes, put aside prejudices and let yourself be guided in the discovery of a high quality restaurant, opened on 10 March 2016 by Massimiliano Villani, chef who voluntarily abandoned the Michelin star obtained at Hotel Mont Blanc in La Salle, to start over in Sardinia
