Simone Marchetti<br />
Gives Us His Scoop<br />
on the City’s Best Spots<br />
Fashion Editor at La<br />
Repubblica, Simone<br />
Marchetti is not only<br />
catnip for street style<br />
photographers but also<br />
the most stylish man in<br />
town with a bomb of a<br />
brain to boot. His witty and<br />
intelligent fashion reporting<br />
has cemented him as one<br />
of the top authorities in the<br />
industry and his penchant<br />
for prints makes him one of<br />
our favorite maximalists out<br />
there. Here, he reveals his<br />
favorite spots in the city and<br />
those that keep him looking<br />
so darn good.<br />
What is your favorite<br />
place to take a café?<br />
“I always take a café at Il Bar Brera, (Via<br />
Brera 23) just in front of the Accademia di<br />
Brera, one of the most magical museums<br />
in the city because it has great people<br />
watching. I will always love Marchesi in<br />
Corso Magenta (Via Santa Marta alla<br />
Porta 11a) for a true slice of Milanese life.<br />
They also have the best croissants in town.”<br />
What is your favorite<br />
restaurant and dish?<br />
“This is hard! There are so many that I<br />
love. When I’m in the mood for pampering,<br />
I will take the fritto misto with a glass<br />
of champagne at Fioraio Bianchi (Via<br />
Montebello 7). I also have a soft spot<br />
for the counter at Gia<strong>com</strong>o Bistro (Via<br />
Sottocorno 6). Make sure you get Eugenio<br />
the barman to make you a violet gin and<br />
saffron tonic.”<br />
