Street Food ... "take a step back to go forward"

Street Food, literally translated street food. In the past a common habit, practice abroad, lately in Italy evaluated with the use of an English terminology. Let's face it, so calling it a sense of modernity that would not otherwise have, but the bottom line is that these are typical of the local food that is consumed while walking or on a bench,  more economically, experiencing more territory.

Only a few days ago I was talking with Beniamino Nespor, along with owner Eugenio Roncoroni  Restaurant and Burger Bar in Milan,  “At the Market.

Two young ventinovenni I met thanks to Francesco Ottaviani, a doctor with whom I often exchange opinions and experiences. Knowing me told me: “You have to go! Those guys love the warmth that people look for in!"Some call it madness, I only say that I am wary of normality. I love the creative minds with that bit of madness that allows you dare.

Upon my arrival, I hit the outer part of the local, I would say almost anonymous ... No sign of restaurant, only a few chairs outside and an indication of the Burger Bar. Then, entering, l’atmosfera è cambiata…  The small and friendly ambience and the choice of making visible the work in the kitchen put me immediately at ease. She accepted the kind Benjamin, with whom I immediately started chatting ...

  • Pet, when Francis told me about you and your local with a lot of enthusiasm, knowing your young age, I was immediately intrigued. How did your friendship and your partnership subsequently?

We met for the first time in junior high, but then we lost touch. Three years ago a mutual friend put us in touch because he knew of our intentions to open a restaurant. After we visited again for a while ', we decided to take the project forward, "Al Mercato".

  • “At the Market”, because the choice of the name?

It 'was the first name that immediately put us agree, and in any case reflected our idea to create a point type market, where you see what you eat while it is being cooked. One thing very common in Asian markets.

  • No sign outside indicates the presence of your restaurant. What motivates this choice?

The signs are not necessary, we love it so, only with our logo in red neon. We've never done advertising of any kind because we rely much more on word of mouth. I also find that gives a good feeling to pass before this anonymous place outside, seeing this great kitchen, people who eat, those in the queue…

  • Tell me what kind of food do?

On the restaurant do international cuisine to Italian base. We like to mix ingredients from around the world, ideas we are thinking about our travel, but using the bases and techniques of Italian cooking. We also try to keep the very concept of Italian antipasto, first, and second. At Hamburger bars we love to offer burgers and other street food world, obviously using the techniques of the restaurant. This gives us the opportunity to always offer a quality product.

  • “Street Food”, What made you decide to follow this path also?

The street food is the passion of every foodie. And US, well as the cooks, We also foodie. We love to go around eating in the worst dives of the world, eating on the street, in piedi,  random things ... In short, try out new experiences. The street food is what makes us understand how it is that a country. The experience of eating with your hands then, is totally different from the one made using cutlery.

  • Pet, when you asked me what I wanted to eat I replied: “Take me what you would eat at this time”.  Friends, I've brought a mega sandwich proved very good.  Having said so obviously does not capture it. Me I want to tell?

You ate our burgers made in the preferred manner I. The hamburger "At the Market"It is our interpretation of the classic American street food.

We use the meat from an organic farm, from the tritiamo 2 to 6 times a day, prepare the vegetables every day, the onion jam we do the, Pickled cucumbers we do them, puree sauce, and the bread we designed together with our baker ... Then there are all the various additions to suit every palate.

He who lives without folly, is not so wise as he thinks.
