Hi! We are two professional cooks (one of us is a barman too!) and we love hosting at our home restaurant, Picà dell'Isola, , an historical, typical Milanese building, called “casa di ringhiera” in the Isola district. We live in the middle of this Art Nouveau neighborhood and it’s amazing bars and clubs, like Blue Note. We'd be glad to show you these amazing streets and our courtyards, to shop together at the Saturday marketsand to cook a traditional, 100% organic, Italian meal for you. We only use products originating from farms around the city. Taste with us the real Milano! *** Hola! Somos dos cocineros profesionales (uno barman a la vez) y amamos abrir las puertas de nuestra típica casa di ringhiera - departamento histórico milanés - ubicada en el barrio Isola, el nuevo centro moderno de la ciudad, conocido por sus edificios Art Noveau y sus fascinantes bars & clubs como el Blue Note. Nos encontramos precisamente en una casa que cuenta la historia y el futuro de esta ciudad italiana y que os regalará una prospectiva interesante. Os deleitaremos con platos típicos preparados en el momento, con materias primas de alta calidad, y con carnes y verduras de origen orgánico obtenidas de los campos lombardos. *** Nous sommes deux chefs cuisiniers professionnels (et un barman!) qui aiment ouvrir les portes de notre maison typiquement milanaise à nos clients, au centre du quartier Isola, le nouveau centre moderne de la ville. Nous nous trouvons de fait dans une maison qui raconte l'histoire passée de cette ville et l'avenir de l'Italie et qui vous donnera une perspective intéressante : nous continuons à raconter mais avec des plats à base de matières premières de grande qualité, de la viande et des légumes biologiques à 100% achetés dans les fermes de Lombardie, pour vous faire découvrir les véritables saveurs de la cuisine italienne en partageant une soirée de plaisir et de conversation. *** Siamo due cuochi professionisti (e un barman!) e amiamo aprire agli ospiti le porte della nostra tipica casa di ringhiera - uno storico edificio milanese - al centro del quartiere Isola, il nuovo centro moderno della città.

We were hosted by very friendly people in the city center and had a perfect evening before flying home. Also the food was adorable

Chiara & Gigio are a charming and personable couple who love food, Milan, and meeting people. We enjoyed meeting them and learning about Milan and a bit of their lives. Having dinner with them was an excellent introduction to Milan.

Chiara & Gigio are very warm and welcoming guests who were flexible in accommodating our request. We had lots of interesting conversations. The meal was very delicious. The cheese used in the appetizer was a delight. I have never had such tender meat before with mouth-watering Milanese risotto and gelato. This perfect meal concluded our last night in the Italy trip. I definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience with Chiara and Gigio. Made our visit to Milan even better. Sampled some of their take on Milanese dishes that we had never tried before. Tasty starter of focaccia with ham, cheese and salad leaves, lovely. The main Ossobucco. , Veal with risotto rice. Again, the taste was amazing, and the wine, Bandolina, was lovely , matched the food so well. The desert was home made peach granache tarts, these were just right. So a great meal, everyone enjoyed the food and company. Chiara and Gigio made us so welcome in their city and we would not hesitate to recommend them to anyone looking for something a bit different to the norm in Milan

Chiara and Gigio were phenomenal hosts and we were so glad that we booked a meal with them. We chose to do this the first day of our trip to Milan and not only was it a delicious introduction into Milanese cuisine, but they were also invaluable in their suggestions for what to check out for the rest of our trip. I would absolutely recommend organizing a meal with these two!
