Da Oscar

  • April 29, 2002
  • Rated 3 of 5 by Ale from Milan, Afghanistan
While this small restaurant looks shabby from the outside, it is one of the best in town to eat wonderful pasta, meat and fish fries in huge portions.

Oscar, the tenant, is a crazy Mussolini fan - and he shows that out in the decoration, as kitsch as you can imagine - married to an Ethiopian, and a great cook with a very straightforward sense of humour. Don't take anything seriously!

You would hardly finish your pasta and a main course (meat or fish), so stay on one course and just pick.

I would recommend:

  • Gnocchi alla Oscar (potato pasta with tomato sauce, cream, whisky, hot pepper);
  • Tagliatelle ai funghi porcini (with mushrooms);
  • Spaghetti all'astice (with lobsters);
  • Spaghetti alle vongole (with seashells);
  • Bucatini all'amatriciana (with bacon, tomato dice and onion)
  • Piccata al limone (veal with lemon sauce);
  • Impepata di cozze (mushels with olive oil, tomato dice and garlic);
  • Fritto misto (fried squids and shrimps).
  • From journal Milan off the beaten track - an insider's view
