To Eat - Trattoria Arlati 

Founded in the 1930s by Luigi and Modesta Arlati, this trattoria is now run by Leopoldo, who represents the third generation after his grandparents and father Mario, who in the 1960s transformed this place from a suburban tavern into a restaurant frequented by artists and managers from all over Milan. A historic restaurant where you can enjoy real traditional dishes in a cosy and relaxed atmosphere, from risotto to ossobuco.
