The culinary focus is on small plates or cicchetti using the freshest seasonal ingredients – mostly sourced direct from produce markets in Milan. The cuisine represents local specialities from the varying Italian regions and includes dishes such as Tagliolini Lobster, Cod Vicentina - Venetian style cod, Homemade Gnocchi Truffle (crispy gnocchi with cheese fondue with truffle) and Guazzetto di Cozze e Vongole (mussels and clams with tomato sauce, chilli and white wine) and Tuna Tartare made at your table with the best Sicillian tuna

    The place is clearly understaffed and overbooked. We were seated late, which was fine. But, as we sat at the bar to wait, not one bartender even looked at us to take a drink order. Then, after getting our table, we waited 10 minutes before leaving because no one came to the table to greet us or take an order. Overall, a bizarre and disappointing experience.

    Excellent food at Fumo, with the Pollo Milanese and Insalata Zucco particularly good. Only downside on this occasion was that they were unusually slow and so we didn't have time for dessert. But otherwise very good.
