For lunch beside the Naviglio Pavese, Pasta Fresca da Giovanni centres the meal on ravioli. Across the Navigli, dinner can mean Emilian fried dough at Osteria del Gnocco Fritto, pizza at I Capatosta Navigli, seafood risotto at Il Principe dei Navigli or smoked beef at The Brisket. Choose by what you want to eat and […]
For a seated Milanese meal, the choice is less about finding one definitive Italian restaurant than choosing the dish and part of the city that fit your evening. Trattoria Milanese puts saffron risotto near the historic centre, while the other four tables take you towards Garibaldi, the Navigli and the residential districts to the east. […]
A fried Neapolitan pizza near Corso Como, aubergine parmigiana at Mama Eat or a Sicilian arancino from GluFree Bakery: the right Milan stop depends on whether you want dinner at a table or lunch at a counter. These places advertise different gluten-free choices, but a menu label alone does not establish how a kitchen prevents […]
A pasta lunch on Via Lagrange and a long meal on Piazza Vittorio Veneto ask for different budgets and appetites.

Munich gives you more than one way to eat Bavarian food. Choose Münchner Suppenküche for a quick market lunch, Bergwolf for a currywurst later on, or Restaurant Tantris for a long tasting menu. Between those extremes, taverns offer a proper seated meal, while Sparkling Bistro makes dinner the main event. The choice is less about […]
A shellfish supper at Cervejaria Ramiro and a long tasting menu at Belcanto ask for very different evenings. Choose by what you want to eat and how long you want to sit, rather than treating one restaurant as Lisbon’s universal must-eat. The neighbourhood, menu format and likely bill will narrow the choice before you take […]
A dinner for two in Milan can mean a skyline above Central Station, seafood in Porta Romana, a quiet room near the Navigli or a garden on the southern edge of the city. Choose the setting you want to linger in, then allow for a seated meal rather than treating dinner as an aperitivo stop. […]
A tapa at a standing counter and a long dinner of small plates ask different things of your evening in Seville.
