MICHELIN Guide’s Point Of View
Napoleon is thought to have spent the night at this old inn in 1800, when his horse became lame (the word “ronchetto” is the contraction of “zoccolo rotto” or broken hoof) – and it is indeed true that a staging post where horses were shod once stood here. Over the years, the building was transformed into a bakery, a butcher’s and also a trattoria with a bowling club next door. It now houses a rustic yet elegant restaurant serving traditional Milanese cuisine alongside a few more imaginative dishes created by the Venetian chef.
