Food Scene

It's common story that they invented the real Panettone first. Cappuccino & brioche (italian croissant) is the must-do. Don't take it away! just sit and relax :)

The best fish restaurant in town: set up on a side of the metropolitan market, a very typical southern Italy family runs the place and it's not afraid to get you notice. Go for Impepata di Cozze (mules) or Fritto Misto - calamari are incredible! Be prepared: plates are huge! Incredibly good prices, too.

One thing about Milano: it's not Naples, having pizza is extremely pointless and overrated - never go for it. With only one exception: Il Tegamino. They're from Naples and they'll tell you, it's probably the best pizza I ever had after Michele's and Sorbillo in Naples. They have 3 restaurants. Go for pizza with scamorza or fiordilatte and filetti (that's naples for fresh tiny tomatoes).

Ok, it's quite far from here... But totally worth it. Fish crudities and Milanese dishes are very well served along with nice mixology drinks. Ok, i'll tell you a secret: tell Richard you're my friends. He'll bring you in front of a wardrobe, next to the loos on -1 floor. There's a secret door inside: a cozy speakeasy parlor furnished with 70s design sofas and vintage jukebox, flippers and Italian traditional soccer table. Shhh don't tell anyone!

Following the Brazilian tradition of sushi, Temakinho is one of the best exotic places in town. Online reservation is always required: ask for the music room, on level -1 a Wes Andersonian and pastel atmosphere will welcome you with the chants of Bossanova vibes with guitar and voice.

Niko Romito probably wanted to pursue his studies in economics. But Italian family tradition came on his way: he decided to open up a cook school, where "outcast" people like himself, coming from totally different backgrounds, could change their life and discover themselves in professional kitchens. Spazio Milano is one of the three spots in Italy where students coming from a 6-months theoretical courses by Pollenzo teachers can experiment the new philosophy of Niko Romito: a simple dish centered on one high-quality element. My favorite thing: supper begins dipping artisanal bread into pure origin oil. More: find my interview to Niko Romito on Alla Carta magazine in the apartment!
