Not exactly nutritious in the wholesome nutrient sense, but you get some calories in! I got a (virgin) mojito that came with a nice chunky circular loaf of bread, a couple olives, some oil for dipping, and parmesan cheese. Unfortunately, this tray was meant for *2* people...so definitely plan on getting a small pizza if you come hungry! The location is nice however, right across from Eataly and in front of all the Corso Como action!

You can see from a window the chefs in the kitchen baking the things they sell. You can also enjoy a good glass of wine while you seat outside at a small counter. It's pricey though. And some of the staff, not that welcoming and polite I must say, does not speak English.

The menu of crepes here is extensive- from savory sandwich-like crepes to a plethora of sweet crepes, this Creperia will satisfy any crepe lover! They must have a hundred crepes on the menu. The selection of sweet crepes ranges from a lot of different fruit varieties like kiwi or berries, to combinations with all kinds of creams, custards, and chocolate fillings. I am also impressed with the drink menu. There are a couple pages of cocktails, plus a beer and wine selection. The cocktails are WORTH IT. I got an Irish whiskey and it was so gorgeous! The bar is also very cool; they've got a lot of character with the way they've decorated this place. I highly recommend this creperia for a drink and a snack. Close to Quadrilatero d'Oro too!

They have approximately 40 plus tables for full capacity. There are tons of stuff on the menu. It reminded me of the Cheesecake Factory menu. I ordered the scrambled eggs with toast and fresh cut fruit and it tasted awesome. This place is another local favorite and I think on both occasions we and another table were the only tourists as most tables were occupied by Milanese folks. We didn't get to try any of the desserts as we went pretty early in the morning but I bet you they most probably were excellent too. 5 star breakfast spot in the central Milan area. Would recommend going there once on your trip to Milan.
