Milano a Riccione

This is the Japanese branch of a Milan restaurant known for its handmade pasta, seafood, and good selection of wines. Although located in a basement, it opens onto a subterranean courtyard, making it brighter and more cheerful than you would expect. There's an English-language seasonal menu, but the best bargain is the daily set lunch for ¥1,575, which includes an appetizer; a choice of pasta or pizza; and coffee, espresso, or tea. It's the quickest meal you can order, but if you're in a hurry, you should dine elsewhere, as care and time are devoted to the preparation of such meals as sautéed Nagoya cochin chicken with gorgonzola or simmered whole fish. At dinner time, a table charge of ¥315 is levied per person and set meals are available only for two or more diners.
