ristorazione — Milano · Lombardia
Between the Darsena and the Navigli, in the stretch of Milan that still carries the scent of water and courtyard, B di Bistrot brings the Mediterranean to the table without straying from the city: seafood and seasonal cooking, run with family care and contemporary technique.
The address is on Via Fra Luca Pacioli, a short walk from the Darsena, in one of Milan's most lived-in neighbourhoods. Those who step in find a new place, still little known, but already noted by those who have discovered it for the owners' warmth and for that personal attention that sets a family-run business apart from a chain.
The dining room is thought through in every detail: dark blue walls, warm lighting, an atmosphere that reviews describe as relaxing and carefully composed. Not a place to pass through, but a space one is glad to sit in — at lunch with the fixed menu at twelve or fourteen euros, or in the evening for a slower occasion.
At the stoves, chef Nazzareno Spina works with ingredients chosen season by season: red prawn tartare from Mazara, grilled octopus tentacle with pistachio pesto, pappardelle with venison ragù, cacio e pepe with black truffle from Norcia. Mediterranean cooking, but with the freedom of one who doesn't stop at the coast.
Every dish tells a precise choice of ingredient and technique. The full page is the next step to discover the menu and book a table.
