.:. Cueva Maya $$
Very good Tex-Mex food and it shows: it's always packed. Booking essential. Sunday brunch.
.:. Within walking distance of the restaurant there used to be the Otra Vez, under the same management and providing the same food. But it has closed.
.:. Giardino di Giada $
A good, reliable Chinese restaurant right behind the Duomo. In Milan since 1980, it belongs to a renowned Chinese family, and has become a sort of landmark for the Milanese.
.:. Hong Kong $$$
Very elegant setting, exquisite Cantonese and Szechwanese cuisine. Reputedly one of the best in town.
.:. Jubin $$
Chinese food, some Thai specialities and sushi in the heart of the Milanese Chinatown. You won't get out smelling of fried chicken. Take away, too.
.:. Mandarin 2 $
Unquestionably, the most acclaimed affordable Chinese restaurant in town. (If you're coming by car - and the area is crowded - there's a good old garage next door until 1:30 at night.)
.:. Serendib $$
Welcoming ambience and food from Sri Lanka and India. Basmati rice, vegetables, chicken, pork, fish and a lot of curry, but also coconut biscuits. Open late.
.:. Shiva $$$
Since 1997, this Indian restaurant has stood out for its traditional Tandoor oven, its good selection of Italian wines and excellent sauces. Meals come to a deliciously flavoursome end with a "cocktail" of seeds, spices and raisins to chew on. A gracious welcome in three softly lit rooms (one for smokers).
.:. Warsà $$
One of the best known Eritrean restaurants in Milan. The main course comes as a single helping for two people (a vegetarian version is also available): spiced meat and vegetables served on the typical thin, spongy bread called em>ingerà, which is used instead of cutlery. Try the dessert made of sesame and the tea with cinnamon and cloves.
