Ancora a Milano

Hello!

I'm back in Milano after a trip home to New York for the holidays. Despite the horrendous blizzards and tremendous amounts of snow, it was a lovely visit! I spent my time with family, reconnecting with old friends, and of course strolling down Fifth Avenue and my favorite streets in SoHo.

The trip back was fine, though I was a bit nervous as I had a very tight connection in Zurich, but I made it safely, with the pleasure of having incredible views of the Alps between Switzerland and Milan.

The weather isn't much better here in Milan (seeing the sun shine is a rare occasion these days), but it didn't stop me from making visits to a few my favorite cafés around the city, which I'll recommend to you:

- Caffè Cucchi (traditional Italian pasticceria with amazing dolci) : Corso Genova, 1 20123

- That's Bakery (American style bakery and café with an Italian twist) : Via Vigevano, 41 20144

- Cioccolati Italiani (creative Italian desserts and coffee customized for the chocolate lover) : Via Edmondo De Amicis, 25 20123

- Pasticceria Sissi (a Sunday morning favorite with exquisite pastries and a relaxed atmosphere) : Piazza Risorgimento, 6 20129

- Princi (a popular panetteria with incredible baked breads and focaccia) : Piazza 25 Aprile, 5 20154 (Garibaldi); Largo La Foppa, 2 20121 (Moscova); Via Speronari, 6 20123 (Duomo)

Hope you'll enjoy!
