30/12/2025: I've been following Cesare Battisti for a while; his cuisine intrigued me, and I wanted to try it for lunch.
Expectations were very high, and... they weren't disappointed. Congratulations to everyone. More than a brigade, it was an army of attentive and harmonious young people... and then the food, speechless.
Excellent products, expertly cooked and presented.
The only drawback... I don't eat meat, and I would have expected more choice.
Parking... A slap in the face to whoever wrote "difficulties," etc.
There are two different parking lots 50 meters away, of course, paid, but that's the case everywhere in Milan. Let's hope for the next administration, but that has nothing to do with this...
All things considered, it was a positive experience
and definitely worth trying.
Well done everyone.
30/12/2025: Drawn by the chef's cute videos, I rushed to City Life for the first time in my life for lunch at Ratanà. Parking isn't registered on Gmaps. The atmosphere is nice, nothing special; the City Life location seems cold to me.
I had a truffle risotto, €80, and they didn't cut and weigh it at the table.
It might be my fault for not usually looking at prices, but if I had seen it, I would have avoided it. Decent flavor, even too bland for me. Nothing exceptional. Then the mushroom skewer on mashed potatoes, a canteen dish, failed.
Total €110, and they didn't serve coffee.
The staff seemed average.
I wanted a bitter, but the selection at the bar seemed poor.
I won't go back, and yet it's always sold out.
