Erba brusca: garden with kitchen

I went to this restaurant on a cloudy day, one of those Sundays when all you want to do is cancel all your commitments and spend the day on the couch....but the cozy and lively atmosphere of this place makes the sun shine even on the darkest moods.

The restaurant Erbabrusca is located right outside Milan, along the Naviglio Pavese river, and it's totally immersed in the countryside: the basic furnishing matches perfectly  the external setting, characterized by a small garden, a swing for the children and a few deckchairs for the older ones.
The menu is fairly limited and all the dishes are simple, yet with an excellent taste! The selection of wines is also appealing, with a very interesting wine list.

If you want (or have to) take your kids with you, they're not going to get bored, thanks to a dedicated corner where they can play and paint, under the careful supervision of two lovely baby-sitters.
And if you decide to reach Erbabrusca by bycicle (it's about 15 minutes from the Navigli area in Milan city), let the staff know: they will offer you a 5% discount!

The perfect place to run away from the city and enjoy a day outdoor, with tasty food, good wine and smily faces.
