MILAN
#DCmoments Milan food guide
As one of the design capitals of the world, it’s no wonder the décor is taken as seriously as the food. Discover James Thompson’s pick of the best Milanese restaurants for date night, special occasions or solo outings.

Panificio Davide Longoni
Located in Porta Romana, one of Milan’s most popular neighbourhoods, is Panificio bakery by David Longoni, who has earned a strong reputation for his naturally fermented bread-making. The bakery is known as one of the best in Milan – whether you’re coming in for a morning pastry or enjoying a glass of wine with his delectable focaccia and antipasti. A local favourite.
Ideal for: Solo, coffee with friends, breakfast

Osteria Del Binari
Arriving at the discreet entrance of Osteria Del Binari in Porta Genova is like stepping back in time. This is a traditional Milanese osteria with classic dining rooms and an open conservatory at the back, which opens onto a garden oasis in summer. This is a go-to restaurant in the area, particularly with locals heading in for a quick working lunch.
Ideal for: Traditional local cuisine, friends



Dry Milano
Focaccia, pizza and cocktails at the beautifully styled Dry Milano – the restaurant and bar that always makes sure you’re enjoying the food whilst having a great night out. The vitello tonnato focaccia is a stand out.
Ideal for: Good nightlife, dinner, luxury fun
