Heading out towards the Fiera, Aimo e Nadia is an intimate, two-Michelin starred restaurant with excellent food. Seafood is the speciality: stuffed squid, tuna from Liguria, prawns fried in pistachio. There are options for meat lovers too, such as duck in Vin Santo with lasagne, veal with ginger and pork with liquorice root and rosemary.

One of the nicest restaurants lining the canal, this bistro-style restaurant makes for a perfect lunch – especially if it is the Sunday of the antique market (although the trick is to turn up just before the 1pm rush). The wood-panelled interior has a mirrored wall, giving the impression of a space twice the size. It serves typical Italian food, such as pasta and gnocchi.

Rated for its Tuscan specialities since the 1920s, Bice is a small, very good quality restaurant where business and fashion types gather to eat risotto Milanese and baked veal with roast potatoes. On a side street parallel with the Four Seasons Hotel between Via della Spiga and Via Montenapoleone, Bice is discreetly placed. A business lunch menu is available and definitely book in advance during any Milanese trade event. Branches in New York and London.

Located in Palazzo Belgioioso, one of Milan’s most imposing neo-classical buildings with chandeliers and vaulted ceilings, Boeucc (Milanese for “hole in the wall”) is one of the oldest, finest restaurants in Milan (it’s been going since 1696). Set on a pretty, cobbled street heading down to the Duomo, it has a charming, old-school smart atmosphere and fabulous service.

Carlo Cracco has been chef since 2000 and has won two Michelin stars for the restaurant. Service is impeccable. In the same area are located Peck Main Store, via Spadari 9 and Peck Italian Bar (see next listing).
