SETA BY ANTONIO GUIDA
Chef: Antonio Guida
CONTEMPORARY - ELEGANT
Inside the Mandarin Oriental, frequented by a refined international clientele, the cuisine reflects the cosmopolitan taste of the city. Three tasting menus give space to chef Antonio Guida's classics in the first, to the season in the second and to a product of your choice in the third. In spring for example, the great protagonist is the blue fish with anchovies, flag fish and bonito with garusoli, kidneys and glasswort: simply exceptional! The complex selection of wines, which can give excellent emotions by the glass, also gives great satisfaction to larger tables, including various Magnum labels from important vintages of the past.

HORTO
Chef: Alberto Toè
MODERN - DESIGN
Norbert Niederkofler arrives in Milan bringing with him his commitment to sustainability. The kitchen, in the expert hands of Alberto Toè, offers two tasting itineraries where the search for local products (no more than an hour from the capital) is a must. In the summer, the terraces with a view that extends from the spiers of the Duomo to the Sforzesco Castle constitute a further plus of the venue, which also becomes an ideal destination for an aperitif thanks to an extensive list of cocktails. The interiors with natural wooden tables create a sober and refined environment suitable for both fine dining and a casual lunch, in this case, however, the proposal becomes simpler.
The chef's commitment:
Niederkofler's Cook the Mountain philosophy arrives in Milan in the formula1 Hour: all the suppliers of the restaurant's raw materials (natural and organic) are less than 1 hour away (traffic permitting!), a nice support for the tradition of Lombard farmhouses ! Equally effective is the 100% step no waste policy through fermentation, garum, dehydration and composting. Finally, the Medelan building which houses Horto has been certified for environmental sustainability.

A place to be: it was predictable that the "casual dining" of the luxurious Portrait Milano would be the protagonist of the last Milanese season, attracting foreigners who love Italy and Italians who love the world. The place is very classy, especially in the area in front of the counter (also for breakfasts, aperitifs and snacks), and the brand has its weight. The menu is enjoyable with an authorial touch (see mondeghili with hand-shredded meat or the white pasta that has conquered the city) and without limitations: it ranges from "Italian" ceviche to a perfect Beef Wellington. Well-designed cellar addressed by Denis Cereda, punctual service. On a summer evening, a cocktail on the porch is one of the best experiences
Suggestive of Milan. Curiosity: the sign recalls the numbers (via Sant'Andrea 10 and Corso Venezia II) of the streets from which the square can be reached, once home to the Archbishop's Seminary which Leonardo Ferragarno transformed starting from the Portrait and taprenodolo to the entire city.

Semi-hidden in a corner of the spectacular portico in the square created on the basis of the former bishop's seminary, there is one of the most international venues in the city, which is part of a premium chain present throughout the world. Trendy place, considering the environment (of a luxury steakhouse) and the clientele but with a cuisine that is anything but banal. We can discuss the almost endless and 360-degree menu but not the quality of the raw materials (the cuts of meat in pole position, Australian Waygu more so) and the always precise execution. The signature dishes are not Mediterranean: the croque sando with beef ham washed down with Beefbar sauce with butter and truffle; Ia Tartare & Tartine; The original miso black beef prepared with Robata. First courses and appetizers are influenced by the Italian location, it is mandatory to taste the home-made chips and mashed potatoes. In short, everything more, at important prices.

But Sisti is also good with vegetables and the fifth quarter, sit down and listen to the advice of the room. The plus is obviously the counter overlooking the kitchen where the team works hard and the chef enjoys explaining.

The Prada Tower deserves credit for having encouraged redevelopment in the south-eastern neighborhood of the metropolis. Such avant-garde is not scientifically reflected in the room on the sixth floor of the Tower: stylish enough, with works of art and touches of contemporary design, designed to host and not to surprise. The cuisine travels on the same track: serene Italian style, with signature touches. Few but centered dishes: veal tartare with cucumbers, smoked eel and lovage; spaghetti with Cantabrian anchovies, friggitelli and almonds; smoked pigeon with roasted onion and yuzu; cheesecake, chartreuse cherries and elderberry ice cream. Cellar and mixology to accompany.

The restaurant has been open for fifteen years and has been managed by Michele S.r.l. for a few years. Expertise in choosing meats,
the correct maturation of 21 days, the correct preparation of excellent quality fish
elaborated delicately by the chef, they are important
credentials for this venue which functions both as a bistro and a restaurant. Good
the choice of wines, mainly Italian and just the mark-up.

Catalan shellfish dish
Scalloped Piedmontese rib on a hot tray
Dish not to be missed:
fresh tuna seared Palermo style with toasted breadcrumbs
