I did not know how else I could title this piece apart from “Unconventional shelter”, since da oTTo is unconventional and cool in the way their logo shows, but what the logo could not possibly tell is about their cinema events, their carefully chosen snacks, meetings and gatherings where interesting present topics are discussed, their hip yet chill appearance and the feeling you have when you start going there more than once: it feels like home…and one you’d like for sure.
It is located on via Paolo Sarpi 8 (hence the name), in what can be considered Milan’s China Town, if we actually have one. Among the many nice places that have been appearing in this area, this one stands out for its beautifully simple architecture, the proposed events and the quality of food & drink: a carefully chosen cocktail of form and substance.
