Tucked inside the covered Sant'Ambrogio market, Da Rocco is a cramped, cheerful lunch-only institution serving ribollita, pasta of the day and a proper bistecca to a near-entirely local crowd. You queue, you share a table, you pay in cash and almost nothing. It is the most honest meal in the neighbourhood.
