This is one of the rare fine dining restaurants in Milan to have a real indoor garden, a source of joy as soon as the weather allows its opening. It’s also a relaxing frame for a cuisine that is halfway between reassuring and joyful. Take the Panzanella for instance. Is it surprising because unusual? No, yet chef Facciolo presents it his own way: onion stuffed with panzanella, robiola from the Langhe and a light pesto. The known and the unknown. The mixed vegetable dish is extraordinary and has gradually grown and is now presented as Bulgur and quinoa: with autumn vegetables, legumes, olives from Gaeta and rocket pesto.
nato a Milano nel marzo 1955, al Giornale per 31 anni dividendosi tra sport e gastronomia, è ideatore e curatore dal 2004 di Identità Golose.
