Reviews for Milan, Italy

10 Corso Como is a shop, café, restaurant and a generic living room that has inspired a new wave of boutique shops in metropolises around the world. The store is hard to describe, as it sells clothes, shoes, designware, lamps, memorabilia and everything in between.

The prices are high, as the st... More >

Al Galileo was the cheapest pizza restaurant that we encountered during our stay in Milan. It was also the best, one of the friendliest and also very fast -- albeit being fast might be explained with the fact that we were the first (and by then only) customers in the restaurant.

The small alleys near Via Pontaccio (and Lanza metro station) are filled with restaurants with opportunities for al fresco dining (outdoors), as their patios expand to the street. We loved the atmosphere of the area, but went to the wrong eatery.

If your legs get tired of walking from high-end fashion store to another, check out Bar Senato on Corso Venezia -- a couple of blocks from the "center" of the Milan fashion district. The café is traditionally Italian, so expect to see small tables, good coffee, male-only staff with excellent attitu... More >

Brums is a midsized children clothing store on busy Corso Buenos Aires. The clothes are very colourful and attend to the details. The sizes range from babies to teens (0-16 years) and both girls and boys have a good selection of clothes.

The service is very friendly and there were enough clerks t... More >

Camper is thinking differently in Milan; almost every single brand shop has been designed and executed to the smallest possible detail and they show stuff that is probably too small, expensive or painful for you. Camper invited people passing by their shop during build-up phase to write on the walls... More >

As most old cities, Milan has also an ancient castle that has been the symbol of power and military strength -- nowadays known as Castello Sforzesco. The castle is located next to Cadorna railway station (Stazione Ferrovie Nord Milano), easily accessible from Cadorna and Cairoli metro stations.
