Il Carminio — Restaurant in Milan

First interaction: 5 stars ⭐️! Malik is an amazing person with great people skills!

We started the dinner with a Gewurtztraminer wine 🍷- from North of Italy 🇮🇹 recommended by him.

As a starter we choose the Millefeuille aubergine - very soft, delicate and tasty starter! Primo piatto we had Cacio e pepe - delicious, perfect pasta! The after taste of pepper is just perfect!

As mains we had grilled chicken (ok‘ish but again plain), green Asparagus with poached egg (nice ! But small), spaghetti with tomatoes and basil (solid, cannot complain) and Tagliatelle with beef Raghu (bland, no depth, made with minced beef instead of handcut).
