This restaurant is located just outside Milan, in a little square dominated by the Castello Visconteo. It is an area which is outside the chaos of the metropolis and is on the edge of the countryside. It is full of history, and time almost seems to stand still here. The atmosphere is friendly as well as historical. The service is very polite, and matches the high standards of the kitchen. It is very relaxing to eat outside during the summer. The menu is very varied and often changes. The foie gras with apples or citrus fruit is one of the house specialities. There is also a large selection of Italian cheeses.
You can either choose to sit at a table with a view of Piazza Cavour, or at a table with a view of the lake, at the Imbarcadero. You can be sure that the employees will do their utmost to make you welcome.
A curious address for lovers of exotic cuisine who like to experiment with spicy flavours slightly tuned down for European palates. Although the white walls resemble farm accommodations in Sardinia, this place is elegant and very tasteful. The wait staff is friendly but you're advised to explain yourself clearly so there is no misunderstanding due to language problems. The Meat with Coconut is very good and various types of curry.
This is a traditional Chinese restaurant unique for its decor.
Located right beside the well-known Pedra del Sol, this cafe is just as popular. Designer objects and works of art are displayed under a very attractive lighting system, and serve as an appropriate background for the young, trendy sophisticates that clutter the bar area. The kitchen offers a long list of delights: ostrich meat, cold seasoned goose, and on Thursdays special dishes like couscous and fish soup. The desserts are all made on the premises.
