Gourmet cuisine in Monza: a symphony of flavors by Fabio Silva

Derby Grill isn’t just one of the best restaurants outside Milan – it’s a celebrated gourmet destination thanks to Chef Fabio Silva. Originally from Naples but adopted by Brianza, Chef Silva has led the kitchen for over 10 years. He’s crafted a culinary approach that blends tradition and innovation, using carefully selected ingredients from Italy’s finest regions.

Guests can choose between two tasting menus, also available à la carte, alongside the restaurant’s classic dishes:

• “Il territorio… secondo me”: A tribute to Lombardy, which welcomed Chef Silva in his youth. Local agricultural roots and traditions are reimagined with creative touches, creating harmonious contrasts while preserving the original essence of each dish.
• “Viaggio alle origini”: A more personal, Mediterranean-focused experience exploring the chef’s Campanian roots. Childhood aromas and memories of home blend with exotic influences and international inspirations from his global culinary experiences.
• The Great Classics: such as risotto with luganega sausage, veal ossobuco with gremolata, and the traditional Milanese cutlet – iconic dishes that have always won over palates from every background and best represent Lombardy’s gastronomic culture.

Complementing the dining experience is a meticulously curated wine list featuring over 400 labels of whites, reds, and sparkling wines from top Italian and international producers – a selection designed to enhance every dish and satisfy even the most discerning wine enthusiasts.
