Hopper posted:I am going to Milan for 1 day on Wednesday, arriving at Porta Garibaldi. Does anyone happen to have a tip for lunch or early dinner? Alternatively, what local dishes are a good choice? A couple of thoughts: 1) the easiest recommendation is to send you to the bigger train station, Centrale (it’s walkable) and the food hall there, Mercato Centrale, is very good. Has a pizza stand, pasta, seafood, bakeries, etc, all done to a high level. So ticks a lot of boxes 2) Some of the classic dishes are cotoletta, which is basically a veal schnitzel, and osso bucco and risotto Milanese, which is beef shank stew and saffron risotto. Can be good, but I’d honestly consider a fried veal cutlet a missed opportunity over very well done “Italian” even if they’re more specifically “Milanese”. 3) There’s an old school Tuscan steakhouse, Osteria la Carbonaia, next to the catholic university campus. Can get there on the metro, and can’t be beat if you’re looking for a big hunk of beef done Florentine style. Yes I know this contradicts point 2, but I make no claims of internal consistency. 4) if you’re looking for a blowout experience, Carlo Cracco has his flagship restaurant near the Duomo, in the galleria Vittorio Emmanuele. So if money is literally no object it’s gorgeous and fancy and very Italian. Jean-Paul Shartre fucked around with this message at 18:04 on Nov 20, 2023 |
