Reggio Emilia, Italy
Enigma Restaurant
Set within a hotel overlooking a central Reggio Emilia park, Enigma holds a Michelin Plate (2025) and takes a dual-regional approach, drawing from both Emilia and Campania to produce cooking that is neither strictly local nor predictably crossover. Chef Ciro Sieno's menu moves between tortello filled with Neapolitan ragù and cappelletti with minestra maritata, placing the restaurant in a small category of Italian tables where geography is actively interrogated rather than simply celebrated.
