Hala says
A romantic, fairy-lit dining room on Borgo Pinti in the Santa Croce / Sant'Ambrogio quarter, a 10–15 minute walk east of the Duomo, run by the sons of the late Prince Dimitri d'Asburgo-Lorena.
The vaulted brick ceiling, the strings of lights, the walls of family photographs, the welcome glass of prosecco. The pear and pecorino ravioli is the signature; the Sachertorte at the end is made from a Habsburg family recipe. It is touristy. Book ahead, dress up.
