Exceptional position for this restaurant of Piedmontese specialities, overlooking Piazza Vittorio Veneto, just at the mouth of Via Po. It takes its name from the fact that it was from here that the couriers that linked Turin to Savona, a port that was very important for the city at the time, left. The interior is characteristic with its old brewery look, but it is the terrace that we prefer, to taste a trout with hazelnuts and a chocolate bunet (kind of sausage) while contemplating in the distance the church of the Gran Madre di Dio.

In the heart of Milan's Chinatown, a bright and airy address, where green plants and large wooden tables make up the decor. Somewhere between hipster and New York style, the local clientele gather here with friends for breakfast, lunch oraperitivo, over a cup of matcha tea or a red fruit infusion to accompany a few hours of coworking.

A unique restaurant in Milan (and even in Italy), because it is the only one where you can eat great vegetarian cuisine. Pietro Leemann is at the stove and gave the restaurant its Michelin star in 1996: a first for a restaurant dedicated to vegetarian cuisine. The two menus are adapted to the seasons and allow you to discover a varied, balanced and refined cuisine that features fresh and healthy products. Wine accompaniments can be added to the menu, which are perfectly adapted. It's a budget, but it's divine.

A restaurant where originality dominates. Italian cuisine (many pizzas) is very imaginative and the service is almost crazy because every server actually hides an actor.
