  1. Duomo. Go to the rooftop.<\/li>\n
  2. Bio Pizza – Corso Italia, 16. Order Carpaccio in Bianco, which instead of red sauce, has white truffle sauce – IT IS THE BEST PIZZA I HAVE EVER HAD IN MY LIFE (I also made a lot of people eat it, and they agree with the assessment). It is 10 mins walk from Duomo, so you don\u2019t have an excuse not to visit<\/li>\n
  3. Torre Branca –\u00a0http:\/\/ciaomilano.it\/e\/sights\/tbranca.asp<\/a>. You get to see Castello Sforzesco while you are at it, so you kill two birds with the same stone. Cool views – take lots of pics! If you are a football fan, an added bonus is that you can see San Siro!<\/li>\n
  4. Alchimia – most chilled place I have ever been in (outside Amsterdam at least…). Apperitivo is great there (it’s a Milanese tradition – they will serve free food during happy hour, so you can stuff your face with appetizers while getting drunk on cheap cocktails). I normally started with Long Island Iced Tea, followed by Capiroska alla Fragola, but if you are with a female companion, then a awesome girly drink is strawberry amaretto colada Totally walkable from Duomo as well (and you get to see Colonne di San Lorenzo which are awesome) Via Francesco Brioschi, 17\u00a0http:\/\/maps.google.com\/maps\/place?um=1&ie=UTF-8&q=alchimia+milano&fb=1&gl=us&hq=alchimia&hnear=Milan,+Italy&cid=426902463743938265<\/a><\/li>\n
  5. I would hang out in Navigli after aperitivo (which normally finishes around 8-9pm<\/span><\/span> depending on place) and hit more bars – just head two blocks over to the canals (walk both Naviglio Pavese and Navilgio Grande). I would start with Maya on corner of Navilgio Pavese and Via Borsi – they had some good mango cocktail if I recall, and a generally solid drinks menu<\/li>\n
  6. If you are hungry after drinking, then have a salmon puglia at Ambasciata Tarantina pizzeria (Via Giosu\u00e8 Borsi, 1). I lived above that place for 3 years! Go to the takeaway place, although the sit-down place is alright too<\/li>\n
  7. Remember that if you have coffee at any bar standing at the bar, the prices will be regulated by the govt – expect around EUR1 for espresso or machiatto, 1.30 for latte or capuccino (although if you order the latter after 11:30<\/span><\/span>, you will get laughed at – only tourists do that in Italy). If you sit down, they can charge you whatever they want<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<\/div>\n
