Traditional Sweet Dishes
Panettone
Panettone is a Milanese Christmas icon, originally a tall, domed enriched bread studded with candied fruit and raisins, and artisans once competed to produce the lightest, most aerated loaf.
Tiramisu
Tiramisu's origins are debated, but in Milan it became a café staple, prized for the theatrical layering of espresso-soaked ladyfingers and mascarpone that wakes the senses.
Pasticcini
Pasticcini means 'little pastries' and Milanese pasticcerie display them like jewels, offering delicate bite-sized cakes and filled pastries designed to be enjoyed with an espresso.
Traditional Savory Dishes
Risotto alla Milanese
Risotto alla Milanese owes its vivid golden color to saffron. Its creamy texture was traditionally achieved by patient stirring and the addition of beef marrow.
Ossobuco
Ossobuco, cross-cut veal shanks braised until gelatinous, gets its bright lift from gremolata, a zesty mix of lemon zest, garlic, and parsley that cuts through the richness.
Cotoletta alla Milanese
Cotoletta alla Milanese is a bone-in veal cutlet pounded, breaded, and fried in butter until crisp, and some culinary historians say Milan's golden schnitzel predates similar Viennese dishes.
Traditional Beverages
Espresso
In Milan, espresso is more than a drink, it is a ritual, often consumed standing at the bar for a quick, intense shot that punctuates the workday.
Aperol Spritz
Aperol Spritz became synonymous with Milan's aperitivo scene, its bright orange hue inviting people to gather outdoors for an easy, low-alcohol drink and small plates before dinner.
Campari
Campari was invented in Milan in the 1860s and its bold, bitter flavor helped define the city’s historic cocktail culture, inspiring classics like the Negroni and the Americano.

Skip restaurants right by the Duomo, walk toward Brera or Porta Romana for better prices and way better risotto.
Get an ATM 24 or 48 hour pass for public transit, much cheaper than singles and inspectors do random checks.
Perfect weekend getaway for shopping and aperitivo culture, 2 to 4 days is ideal and bring comfy shoes.
Found Milan a bit overhyped, crowds felt exhausting and several museums seemed overpriced. Not for a long stay for me.
Loved the fashion vibes and cafe culture, pricey but the food made it worth it. Three days gave a good taste.
