Alone for lunch today, so I walked a couple of blocks to the nearby Drogherie Milanese, where I…read moretook a seat at the bar. The Drogherie is part of a chain of "diners" here, and I use the word loosely for fear that some of my American compatriots might think of a Denny's or the local Yonkers diner as an analogy. For today, a glass of Sicilian red is excellent for the Tartare appetizer -- mixed perfectly with eggs, anchovies, and herbs. The Carbonara pasta -- homemade pasta mixed generously and indulgently with egg, parmigiana, pepper, and pancetta is out of this world. In my eager search for culinary disappointments in Milan, I have failed miserably, agai

So glad we found this supermarket! We got a cucumber, blueberries, bananas, pizzas, calzones,…read moresausage bread, juice. Loved the selections for individually-packaged itemssuch as salads & cut-up fruits. Great selections of pretty much everything you typically find at any American grocery store. The store-made foods we got were 50% OFF!!! Bc we went late at night. If you're a budget-minded traveler, you'd love this store!

A baguette, a salmon tartare, a bottle of San Pellegrino for like eight euro. Yeah I know, it's…read morejust an ordinary supermarket, but give me a break. I'm American. Bored and lacking in inspiration, I could walk down the street from my hotel and find this kind of ambrosia that is simply unavailable in DC.

Was super lucky to find this grocery store just a few short steps away from my hotel…read more On a Saturday evening, this place was packed!! I was shocked at how many people were moving through this store with their carts and baskets completely overloaded with food. I mean, completely overloaded with food -- I'm surprised there was even food left on the shelves! People had tons of milk and meats, and produce - - was there a snowmaggedeon about to hit Milano or something? :) So I left and came back a bit later around 7:00, to let the crowd die down - - to which it did. But for my flight back to the States, I loaded up on a bunch of Italian chocolates (love my Nocciola!), some Italian jams, cookies and biscuits, and a bunch of vino!! And holy crap - - their prices were awesome on the wine! I found a bottle here that I like (can't get in the States) for 9.50EUR - previously the same bottle was 19EUR at at wine boutique store. Score!!! But they even had some other really good wines on sale - - like only 3EUR. So stock up here for sure. Bring your own shopping bags, at least - - that's what the Italians do too. My line went fast - -the clerk was friendly. Oh, oh - - and I even scored some Espresso capsules that will fit my Nespresso machine too. The brand was Caffe Vergnano 1882 - - double score!!

All of their walls are devoted to food and/or wine. There was a really nice girl who spoke English and was able to help find some grappa for him and dry white Italian wine for me. Besides wine and alcohol, they have jams, dry pasta, chocolates, olive oil and balsamic vinegar!
