The Hyle concept combines two paths, the personal one of Antonio Biafora and the territorial one, represented by the rediscovery of the "via della pece". Pitch Bruzia is a precious raw material with a thousand uses: medicine, naval engineering, handicrafts, and conservation. The woodcutters extracted it from the trunk of the larch pine by carving herringbone channels. Thus, rediscovering an ancient and noble custom, we came across a path of our own, more singular than ever, the path of the pitch. Biafora intends to retrace this path, which starts from the hills overlooking the sea and reaches the top of the mountains, a short route which, however, includes a fertile territory rich in different and exciting raw materials, from which we start to build a kitchen that , enriched by the chef's experience and past, draws a map of territorial excellence, identifying farmers, breeders and small producers and activates a chain of economic and social sustainability.

An expression of Italian quality and hospitality. The story is the making of an Italy that dreams of past splendour, projecting it into the future. Psychology conjugated to taste. Trust. Contact. Dialogue. The goal is to stimulate you through a story about you and your desires through creativity, always putting people and their particularities first. “We are what we eat,” said Feuerbach. And this is what the restaurant tries to express through its gastronomic proposals: the ideas arise from the dominant thought according to which the relationship of each person with food is comparable to the relationships we build with the outside world and, in particular, with our identity. Thus was born the Psyche menu, a journey into your conscious and unconscious desires with which your mind is stimulated by establishing a relationship of trust to transform each dish into a journey of self-discovery.
