From cutting-edge design to creative dining and a sidewalk scene that makes Fashion Week seem redundant, Milan is both thrilling and fun. Everyone here is fizzing with ideas and ambition, and its catching. Unlike nonnas Italy further south, the Milanese, like New Yorkers, are refreshing modernists. The main currency here isnt the euro or amazing design gadgetry its inspiration.

Food History

Northern Italian food is city food originating from one of the richest urban cultures on the planet. Peasants may have toiled in the fields, but they rarely had the means to eat anything more exciting than wild garlic, greens and polenta. The people with the real knowledge to transform the countrys growing abundance of ingredients were the inhabitants of wealthy cities like Milan. As Venetian and Genoese sailors offloaded their cargoes of spices, sugar, saffron, fruit, citrus and nuts from around the Mediterranean, so traders distributed them via northern Italys navigable network of rivers. Powerful clans like Milans Sforzas competed for a slice of the profits, taxing trade and patronising the best cooks of the day. It was in this competitive commercial environment that Italys great cuisine was born.

Foreign Flavours

Milans generations of internal Italian immigrants have injected the cuisine of virtually every region into the lifeblood of the city, where youll often find Genovese, Piedmontese and Tuscan dishes sharing menu space with local Lombard classics. As well as the food of these near neighbours, Milans increasingly diverse global population is also reflected in the citys eating habits. Unusually for Italy, Japanese and Chinese restaurants are commonplace and the cuisines of India, the Middle East, sub-Saharan Africa and, most recently, Latin America are all represented.
