An old, carefully restored road worker’s house on the Alzaia Naviglio Pavese canal is the setting for this modern, stylish restaurant where Alessandra and Matteo welcome guests in a graceful, elegant and yet informal manner. The menu features contemporary meat and fish dishes accompanied by a good choice of wines. If you’re curious about the restaurant’s name, ask the owners for an explanation: could it be something to do with the private dining room perhaps?

This old monastery in Moirago, overlooking the Naviglio Pavese canal, was founded in 1250 and converted into an inn as early as 1478. Centuries may have passed, but the tradition of hospitality continues in the building’s enclosed painted portico, as well as in its two warm and atmospheric dining rooms. The chef’s Puglian origins explain the abundant use of vegetables and raw fish dishes, while in winter the cuisine takes on a more northern Italian flavour. Good selection of wines by the glass.

A taste of the big city in Milan’s southwest inner periphery: Altatto brings a fully vegetarian cuisine built on contemporary ideas, modern techniques, and flavors that alternate between bright citrus accents and softer, more captivating tones. A prime example is the mascarpone risotto with celeriac base and walnuts, intense and perfectly balanced. The space, minimal and clean-lined, finds warmth in an informal, jovial service that makes the overall experience all the more welcoming.

Situated on the Naviglio away from Milan’s bustling nightlife, this rustic-style restaurant is decorated with a profusion of wood. As the name suggests, fish and seafood take pride of place on the menu, with a good choice of antipasti to whet the appetite, as well as inviting trays of raw fish dishes (shared by the whole table), followed by delicious traditional pasta and grilled options.
