Café Fabrique In Milano

27/07/2025: Great place to eat. Service is great, food is good

02/07/2025: That moment when expectations are higher than reality. The food is good, even while the creativity often doesn’t contribute to taste - I.e. the ash-cooked egg really doesn’t bring anything additional to your paladar. Ribs are good but lacking a better companion side dish than a marinated red cabbage. However, the main issue isn’t food, it’s service. The wine was brought very warm, we had to ask for a cooler. We ordered asparagus with the ash egg and truffle oil but they forgot the truffle oil and had to bring it separately. We were finishing dinner around 22:15 and were the only ones left, so the personnel started cleaning and collecting the rubbish. To say that we felt weird and unwelcomed is to say nothing. No one, including the chef who was actually working there in an opened kitchen, ever asked us if we liked food. A very striking difference to the level of hospitality you normally have in Italy.
