Bistro Nazionale
Sunday is a sacred moment in Italy—a time for family gatherings, sharing stories, and cooking glorious food for loved ones. To welcome us into this tradition, Bistrò Nazionale opens its doors every Sunday for Domenica, offering not just incredible Italian food but also the warm hospitality that comes with it. They’ve lovingly named their Sunday brunch Giro Pasta. This is not your typical Sunday brunch. It’s generous, abundant, and comforting—everything you’d expect from lunch at Nonna’s house.
Racines
A steps away from Place Flagey, Racines is one of those places that quietly earns a loyal following. No flashy signs, no over-the-top marketing—just an honest focus on good food, good wine, and a deep respect for ingredients. This is Italian cuisine at its most authentic, prepared with a sense of place and purpose.
Mangia Sempre
Mangia Sempre, a perfect place for an Italian aperitivo. This sweet little shop has not only great cheeses and meats to sample on their terrace but it’s also a store with delicious pasta, sauces and other Italian products to cook at home. You can wash that all down with natural wines or beers from Brasserie de la Mule and Brasserie Cantillon.
Al Piccolo Mondo
Our dinner at Al Piccolo Mondo was like coming home to a warm hug. The smiles and greetings at the door were enough to make us feel like we were long lost friends, finally seeing each other again. Even though it was our very first visit.
