Picnics are complicated for people living in a hotel! Ask for a picnic hamper, hotels sometimes offer these so worth asking.

Hi guys, I've seen that Piemonte section solved your problem, on my suggest  Anyway, does anyone come from east of Italy? On friday morning me and Ettore (LE Chrono Gray) will meet up near Milano, at 10 of the morning. Then we will go to Torino, have a pic nic at Superga, and go to Pininfarina at 13. Is there anyone who want to join us? Hi Gimmo, what time are you planning to come to Superga? I think a few of us might meet you there  Cheers.

Hi Radicz, I'm checking if we can park our cars on Superga Hill. Give me a couple of days, please. A good alternative is to have lunch few kilometers outside highway, here -> http://goo.gl/maps/H6xLFWe can have lunch with 12 euros each one, and then re-start for Pininfarina Museum. If you will pass along Torino-Trieste highway, it can be a good idea.

I have to leave the hotel on Friday morning to collect Adam from Turin Airport at 10:40. Though I may discover it easier for Adam to take a train to Turin centre, and collect him from there. But if I can make it, the Lunch idea sounds a fantastic idea before heading for Pininfarina

We can have the meet at Vicolungo Shopping Center, 100km before Torino, and came together near Torino. I can search for a local for lunch directly near Museum. What do you prefer?

What do you think for lunch NEAR the museum? Maybe is better, so we can lunch at 12:00, and have one entire our to have lunch. Me, Ettore, Barnacle and others can have the meet up at Vicolungo, or in a service station along the highway. My girlfriend was born near Cambiano, we can stay in front of group and indicate the fastest road to come to Museum. Sorry for my terrific english

Oh yes! Bingo! On friday they have a lunch menu at fixed price, for 12 GBP. TripAdvisor's vote http://www.tripadvisor.it/Restaurant_Rev...n_Piedmont.htmlI have to admit that I had never eat here, but in Italy great part of restaurant are good. I have checked from Google Maps, and there is a big parking. I can call him tomorrow to ask if they can reserve some seat for us.

This looks like the route ROUTE we will be taking, though the return may change to see more of Luxembourg. Friday, hopefully the car will be nearly finished and I'll be over to begin putting the car back together If I do get the car done and ready on Saturday then it's FIA World Rallycross at Lydden on Sunday. Then back home, pack up the Coupé and back down to Folkstone early hours Tuesday

Myself and Alan M (arm) will be starting Friday morning from SE of Lyon and wil drive past Chambery an hour later so could try to meet up and all drive together to the lunch meeting point which should take 2½ hours from Chambery. Cambiano is just off the E70 which we'll be driving into Italy on, so I imagine we'd just carry on south of Turin? How about we meet at the B&B Hotel Chambery just off the E70 at 9:30am? Here's my complete route at the moment (zoom in on point E to see the rendezvous)

I have just called the restaurant. It is 800m away from Pininfarina Museum. They have a big parking We can reserve some seat, but I must know the exact number at least on monday afternoon. What about the menu?  In this month they offer different recipes based up ASPARAGUS, but they don't have a fixed price menu ready. We must say how much we can spent, and on monday they will offer me different fixed price menus. Are you ok? Elsewhere, you can order what you want, but will be more expensive. So, please, re-list yourself with your budget, and indicate if there are some particular request Gimmo + Lara ____ -> T20 Military green - 40 Eur (20 each one) Ettore __________ -> T20 LE Chrono grey - 20 eur Bob, Trish + Adam -> T20 Scotts Green Barnacle + Anita _ -> 16NA Black Metallic (meet Biandrate exit, in Vicolungo outlet for a coffee with Gimmo & Ettore) Frazer + Karen __ -> T20 Broom Yellow

You can not pass though Turin! Because of co2 emission of our cars.. As far as I can tell, it's only the ZTL Centrale that we need to avoid? The hotel in the centre is a mile or so to the east of the ZTL, and Mirafiori is also down to the SW of the centre, so I assume we'll be OK and won't arrive to home to find we have run up lots of automatic penalty fines?
