Tomaso's guide for Milano
Food
My favourite restaurant, 1 min walk from the house.
Vintage cozy place from Puglia, everything is 10/10 about this place. English menu is available and the young waiter Raimondo speaks it. Tell him that Tomaso from Airbnb sent you there.
Recommend booking by phone for weekends (I can call for you if needed).
