The best restaurants Milan

Not far from the Duomo, in the heart of the historic centre, welcome to one of the Pascucci cafés. For some, it is one of the best cafés in the city and for good reason, they make and sell their own coffee. It is therefore an excellent address from sunrise for a caffeinated breakfast with pastries. During the day, you can also come and enjoy their excellent nougat or the famous panettone. We still recommend the inevitable cappuccino-cornetto combo! And if you prefer tea or chocolate, you won't be disappointed either

For a taste of Neapolitan savoir-faire in the Lombard capital, head for Starita with its succulent pizzas - starting with the margherita. The fritti, or appetizers, are also delicious: try the zucchini flowers, for example, or the fried mini-pizza with ragù sauce. Finally, there are a few desserts to end the meal on a sweet note: from traditional tiramisù to angioletti fritti, small pieces of fried pizza dough covered in chocolate! For a good, inexpensive pizza, Starita is a safe bet.

On the border between the Brera and Porta Nuova districts, a "risto-shop" that showcases the regional gastronomic specialities of Emilia-Romagna and especially the king of Italian cheeses, his majesty Parmesan. In the shop, where everything is on sale, it's like a cheese dairy where tastings are the order of the day. On the plate, tempting recipes such as meat tortellini sprinkled with the famous cheese, cannelloni au gratin and a cheesecake obviously made with parmesan. Also available as an aperitif.

A place to come to at any time of day, for breakfast, lunch or a drink on the large terrace along Corso di Porta Ticinese. A wide choice of cornetti in the morning, accompanied by a cappuccino to get the day off to a good start. The aperitif formula is very interesting: in addition to your cocktail, you'll be served several slices of pizza. These thick-crust pizzas can also be enjoyed at lunchtime. The service is friendly and the prices are reasonable.
