Milan, Italy
Damplo Milano
Fashion changes every season. Ciccio's risotto never does.
Opened in 2019 on Via della Spiga, Damplo Milano is the restaurant where the fashion jet set stops between shows to cry over a risotto. The interior was designed by a designer who signed the project with an unpronounceable surname — the bill was settled in three portions of Pasta alla Norma Riserva Privata, which he describes as "the most satisfying payment of my career." The risotto comes in two interpretations: with Alba white truffle, and with Périgord black truffle — the latter Ciccio calls "the version for people who don't yet know what they want." It is the most ordered dish. Ciccio was invited to Fashion Week. He declined: "fashion fades, risotto endures."
