Milan is packed with restaurants that serve a wide variety of world cuisines. Like all Italian cities, it has its own culinary traditions, and thanks to recent waves of immigration, the range of ethnic restaurants has increased enormously.
Porta Venezia has a strong African presence and features numerous Eritrean, Ethiopian, Lebanese and Egyptian eateries. Paolo Sarpi Street (Chinatown) is home to many traditional Chinese restaurants, while Via Padova is known for its little South American bistros. In the Navigli area there are a handful of trattorias where you can taste traditional Milanese dishes, the most famous one being “risotto alla Milanese” (creamy saffron risotto). Another typical local dish is "cassoeula" (a rich pork and cabbage stew).

It is an institution in the area of Porta Romana. The quality of the food is quite high for the price you pay for the lunch menu. In fact, at dinner time the restaurant has much higher prices. Are you into wine? You will love to match your lunch with their house wine which that comes for free with the lunch menu.

The best offer in the area for a quick meal, cheap and filling this is best than any fast food chain. Also this is one of the only few places in Milan still making pizza in this traditional way, imported from South Italy more than 60 years ago.

I really like the cozy atmosphere here in Princi. The space is big enough for working as well! Better come early during weekdays, if you really want to work, because Princi will be packed from afternoon until the evening, and it will be quite noisy! It's a really popular place among locals, either for business meetings or to chill out with friends!

Head to “The Ugly Duckling” to experience its retro atmosphere, enjoy authentic dishes and to simply be surrounded by locals. It’s an especially good choice as it’s almost impossible to find an authentic local eatery in the area.
