FontinaMI 2023: 10 great Milanese restaurants will interpret the 10 best Fontina PDO forms of Alpine pasture

The Consortium for the Protection of Fontina PDO announces the names of the ten Milanese restaurants that 13 to 26 February 2023, on the occasion of the second edition of “FontinaMI”They will offer their personal interpretation of Fontina DOP. 

And not just any Fontina! Each chef will, in fact, have one of the 10 cheeses produced last summer in the Alpine pastures and then selected for the “Modon d'Or” competition, which assigns the prestigious award each year to ten Alpine pastures in Valle d'Aosta.

The areas in which “FontinaMI” takes place cover the whole city: from the Naviglio Pavese, home of Chic'n Quick, the modern trattoria of starred chef Claudio Sadler, to the more informal Ciz in the Risorgimento area with its well-stocked wine cellar; from the elegant Innocent Evasions of the award-winning Tommaso Arrigoni in the Certosa area, at the Locanda alla Scala with its secret garden in the heart of Brera; from the Ratanà of Cesare Battisti, very sustainability-conscious, to the cosy and Milanese Head, both in the Isola area; from Piazza Repubblica Restaurant of the acclaimed Matteo Scibilia in the square of the same name; concluding with two restaurants with breathtaking views such as Gallia Terrace, in the historic Milanese five-star hotel with Fratelli Lebano in the kitchen, and the brand new Mi View located between the two trade fairs and near the Milano Ovest exit.
