Imagine immersing yourself in a quiet corner, where the scent of freshly browsed books mingles with that of your freshly prepared food. The Book Hound's is a true oasis for lovers of reading and cooking. In the vibrant and dynamic Lazzaretto district, eclectic shops and avant-garde restaurants blend with the narrow streets of a 19th-century Milan, create a unique combination. This cosy space is furnished with care, offering a library full of titles in Italian, with some in English, ranging from timeless classics to contemporary bestsellers. You can lose yourself between the pages, relaxing on the comfortable sofas while the sun filters through the windows. I am planning a corner in the house for the Book Crossing, a project I believe in very much. If you like a book, you can take it away with you from the dedicated area, just remember to leave one! The fully equipped kitchen is an invitation to create. Whether you are an experienced chef or a novice cook, you will have everything you need to prepare delicious dishes. Imagine enjoying a dinner with fresh ingredients, perhaps sharing a good wine and a story read in the afternoon. I will also share with you my addresses for buying good food in Milan, and experimenting in the kitchen! This flat is not just a place to stay, but an experience to be lived. Book your stay and be inspired by the magic of books and the joy of cooking. We are waiting for you...
