The aptly named RisOtto serves – what else? – risotto, and nothing else. And such delicious, creamy rice bowls they are! The menu changes daily, usually with five savory choices and a dessert option ranging in price from 4,90-8,90 EUR. You could go simple with peas and lime, a bit more fancy with white beans, ham and thyme, or try the "mother of all risottos": risotto milanese with saffron and butter. RisOtto started out as a lunch spot on the busy corner of Torstrasse and Friedrichstrasse, but due to popular demand, they're now open for early dinner as well. The design of the long, narrow space is calm and lovely, with dark wood tables, high stools and amazing olive oil for sale. They whip up your dish in the tiny kitchen behind a pane of glass, next to the cash register. Or, since it's just a five-minute walk from the Miniloft apartments, it's also the perfect takeaway option for an elegant meal at home.

As their motto states, it's "fresh, fast, fine." The ultimate comfort food!
