one good thing in Milano is that if you go in less popular streets, you can find VERY cheap but still great places where to eat.
I also suggest Forno Maria Marinoni in the Cadorna Train Station: great sandwiches, coffee, sweet food, freshly baked bread... it opened in 1908 and it's great for every meal of the day
Milan, my native city, and my dwelling place for the whole of my 63 years of age, is not the best city in Italy, I know. But it has some interesting things. First of all, ladies and gentlemen, let your stay be of about 10 days (or also 15!): considering that some of them will be spent on Lake Como, or Cinque Terre, or Bergamo, or Lugano (Switzerland), all of those places easily reacheable from Milan… And then you have, within town, the Duomo, the Castle, the Last Supper, museums, and other attractions and cosy locations, in or around the city, which will be too long to relate upon. (Consider that I don't care a farthing about fashion…) Another tip: don't go to any tourist places for accomodation and eating. You will be better served (and save a lot, a lot, a lot of money) if you stick to less famous places: any city guide-book will tell you about them. You pay one third of the money you would have spent for glamorous places, so your stay will be three times longer. Food is also better in less touristic places, believe me. You don't need a five-starred chief to cook a "Risotto alla milanese", just to take an exemple: my grandmother (born in 1901, and now, of course, dead) made it so delicious, and I can cook it every time I want in my home kitchen, for a few Euros (you, dear tourist, can also try to cook it up yourself in your apartment's kitchen, if you follow a good recipe). Yet some tourists are wealthy. Good for them! They want what they consider the best, without much bothering, and without any care about what that will cost them, as they have plenty of money. Do they experience, in that way, a really Italian and Milanese vibe, (other than a more exotic Las Vegas experience of European food and way of life)? Well… naah…
My wife and I visited Milan in December and we loved it. We can’t wait to go back. We found that our favorite restaurant there was Puccias which had amazing hot sandwiches and it was right next to our Airbnb. We tried to go to Luini’s but as you said, the line was very long.
In reality, Milan has more history than many other European capitals, but in Italy it is suffocated by cities such as Rome, Florence, Venice, Verona, etc.
Milan is also the city where Christianity got the green light from Roman emperors, because in the 4th Century it was the capital of the western part of the empire. Not sure this has affected humanity in a very positive way, but just to let you know...
@@emanueledes7Yes, was promulgated the "Edict of Milan", or Edict of Costantino.
"Christians too, like everyone else, have the freedom to follow their preferred religion."
@@Gigi_Latrottola It was much more than that, Constantine already chose Christianity as the state religion of the empire. It just took some more decades to become compulsory for everyone, unless one didn't want to get into big trouble.
I love your videos! Brilliant again. Thank you.
This video just in time that i am going to milan today..thank you Prof Wolters 😊
Great timing! We'll be there later this month and have reservations at Trattoria Milanese. The dishes you mentioned are on the menu.
Yummy!
Another great video, we had a few hours there in 19, awaiting our Sleeper to Paris, heck its expensive but great food
Wiener schnitzel is done generally with pork, cotoletta alla milanese with veal, that's the first difference. And cotoletta should have the bone in it. So the one is not the other. After that we in Milan are fighting with Austrian for the paternity of the dish by, arount three centuries (and we think that we are the inventors, after all we have medieval recipe for a similar dish, but the fight is still far from a settlement :D )
Fantastic timing for this video for me personally. Flying over to Milan next week and using it as sort of a base to explore Switzerland, France and Northern Italy (going all over but will be changing trains in Milan often!). Will try to check most of these things off the list when I'm there! Thanks for the suggestions!
As a question to you (or the internet in general), if you have a couple of hours to kill between trains, any suggestions on places to go in the downtown core or near Milano Centrale for food? Not individual restaurants per se but more neighborhoods or areas? Thanks!
If you aren't staying in Milan but only passing through I would grab a taxi to take you to the Duomo and Galeria then grab a taxi back
Next week I will fly to Amsterdam and make my way to Florence Italy so I will stop in Milan. Nice video
Oh my city!!!! 🤩🤩🤩 Best panettone in Town Is the One by Pasticceria Ranieri in via Puccini! Delicious!!
Now you tell me!!!! 😉
When in Milan, I always get a bowl of tortellini in brodo. I never tire of it.
Yummy!!!
I think we're going to be making Milan our home base from now on! Lol when mom passed a couple of months ago there, we stayed around the college district and lived the apart hotel we stayed at. Got to explore the neighborhood, went to the grocery store, going a really good Laundromat (very important!), and, holy cow, so many Asians! I'm Chinese and can speak it, but not Italian. Made communicating so much easier! Plus trains are convenient from there.
My condolences on your mother's passing. May her memory be eternal.
@@WoltersWorldEats thank you. Mich appreciated.
@@WoltersWorldEats Italy is the favorite destination of american people
@@WoltersWorldEats mexico are also the favorite destinations of american people and the mexican coca cola is the favorite soda of Americans
THANK YOU SO MUCH! I’m going to Milan this week! This video was perfect! That panzerotti looks like heaven! 😋😋😋
They are so good! Really near the duomo
@@WoltersWorldEats the fried one is a must!!! I found it 15 years after my last visit to Milan. Now I tell everyone about it
Sono di Milano, ti avviso: preparati a una lunga fila!! Ti consiglio anche l'Antico Vinaio, che fa ottimi panini.
Ah, dimenticavo!! Vai da Signorvino dietro al Duomo, pranzi o ceni con vista sulla cattedrale.
Did you guys ever travel to Umbria? Awesome place for food lovers
Yes!!! (Mark wrotong) such good food
Aperitivo allows you to eat a variety of food after buying a drink….good option for a light meal. Also lots of German-style bakeries which have great food too
Hi, are they any restaurants open on Christmas day and Boxing day in Milan? Thanks
I loved Milan, the city alone...1 or 2 days is sufficient to visit everything...but it makes an excellent base for a week to see the city and Northern Italy + parts of Switzerland (FYI I loved Lugano).
One or two days to visit all Milan? 😂 Do you know how many museums we have in Milan, cathedrals, how many different zones with their own differences? How many parks? How many shops? After 50 years you still don't know how much you are missing in this city!!! Lol
2 giorni per visitare Milano ???
May 2023 we finally get to explore Italy.. Milan is our 1st stop & food will be a huge part of our experience. CAN'T WAIT
How was it?
1:48 - in Italia ci sono coltivazioni di riso ... da secoli .
Spontini for pizza.
Every time I get off the train at Centrale, I stop.
They cut it into slices then cut it again to eat with a fork for takeaway.
May I ask, would there be just white rice?
The most interesting and vibrant city in Italy is by far Milan. It's like a scaled down New Yotk but with 2500 years of history.
To each their own. A lot of people would disagree.
What was that roof restaurant in this video called?
It is called "La Rinascente", and it is a big and historical store/restaurant/bar in Piazza Duomo.
It is good, but definitely not cheap at all.
Venice without a doubt is ridiculously expensive
What is the place at 2:20 called?
It is called "La Rinascente", and it is a big and historical store/restaurant/bar in Piazza Duomo.
It is good, but definitely not cheap at all.
no reco for pizza & pasta?
So many spots.
Did he say (1:01), "If you want one of these tastinesses..."?
I like to make up words 😀
@@WoltersWorldEats :))
"tastinesses" is a great new word😊 I'm going to try and make it part of our family vocab. Thank you for another informative video, Mark.
Please add restaurants you find majority of your dishes.
Restaurants change, their management and menus and owners. Because of this don't typically recommend restaurants.
@@WoltersWorldEats makes sense, thank you for the detail. Safe travels
Sushi😂
It's a bit sad knowing that restaurant dishes are never compare to home made ones. Meaning, most people are never going to experience the actual dishes, ever.
Don't worry bout the pronunciation of Cassoeula, it's not even an Italian word! It comes from the regional language: Lombard
Почему совремнные люди так тараторят, куда мы все спешим?
I'd like to learn the proper pronunciations of these words, would be good if you can say them as they should be
Risotto = Tasteless mush. Sorry.
Mario batalli if he didn't care about the charges... So like Trump's cousin
si mangia molto meglio a Torino.Torino molto più bella
