Inside the oh-so-glamorous Gucci Garden, amid pea-green walls on the ground floor of Palazzo della Mercanzia, three-Michelin-star chef Massimo Bottura oversees a menu that mixes iconic Italian dishes like tortellini in Parmesan sauce with innovative twists on international favourites, such as hotdog made with Tuscan Chianina beef. Tasting menus €70 and €90. Diners get free admission to the fashion house's museum.
