We had only one day in Milano so we made the best of our time by walking to as many places as we could: the magnificent Duomo, Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, Basilica di Sant'Ambrogio and ancient Roman ruins. We enjoyed a fine dinner of central Italian cuisine at nearby De Pasajo Dal Marchigiano in via Cesare da Sesto. The apartment on Corso Genova is in a good location with many shops, bars and cafes. In the evening, we sat at a table outside Bottega del Vino La Coloniale Milano and drank a glass of wine accompanied by a plate of meat and cheese. It was a relaxing way to end the day.
Patrizia and Enrica were wonderful hosts who offered helpful local information in a cozy, casual and quiet location even with the vibrant, energetic city of Milano beyond the door. Our only regret is that we didn't see DaVinci's The Last Supper (L'Ultima Cena) at Santa Maria delle Grazie, because one must reserve tickets well in advance. However, it just gives us another reason to return to Milano.
