In 2009 the Maccanti family decided to open Bàcaro del Sambuco, a smaller and more intimate version of Il Sambuco in a high profile location on Via Montenapoleone, the high fashion district in Milan. Why Bàcaro? In Italy, a “Bacaro” is a classic little restaurant where family and friends will go to meet and spend some time out of the day with each other, laugh together,

“bacaiar” (celebrate) or share the latest “ciacole “ ( rumor or gossip ).
