Zog — Restaurant in Milan

A very beautifully designed bar in the Navigli, right on the canal.

As soon as you enter you will see a tiny bar (with just two seats) on one side and some couches and tables on the opposite corner. Right after this area they have a small dining room: narrow and long with wooden tables and walls made of stones with lots of old pictures hanging from there.

We actually stayed for quite a while having coffee and people watching as it was a perfect day at the canal. Next time we'll have to sit inside because it's so cute!

We had a croissant with jam, white cake with cream, bruschette with sun-dried tomato and roasted eggplant (18) and puccia (I think that was what it was called) with speck, mushrooms, smoked cheese and rocket (6). The puccia was the...
