5 things to do in Milan this weekend

Christmas is officially upon us, and the markets along Corso Emanuele with their little lights and various treats emphasize this, including the huge fir tree in Piazza Duomo. You'll probably be busy with last-minute shopping, but if you still have a moment to enjoy Milan at this atmospheric time of year, do not miss nss's tips.

To Eat - Al Garghet

Typical Lombard cuisine is the absolute star of this restaurant with two rooms, one of which has a piano, and an outdoor veranda for fine weather. The menu is handwritten in Milanese dialect, with an Italian translation next to it for the uninitiated. Typical Milanese dishes include mondeghili, casseoula, risotto and ossobuco, tripe and elephant ear escalope, and roast brains and sweetbreads with artichokes and lemon sauce

To Discover - Mario Testino, Unfiltered

The first compilation of works related to our country, part of the recent editorial project 'Ciao', to more intimate portraits, snapshots of authentic moments of life experienced by the Peruvian photographer together with some of the faces most closely associated with his extraordinary career. An opportunity not to be missed, as this is Testino's first major solo exhibition in an art gallery

To Chill - Les Vetements de football

On the occasion of the book launch of 'Les Vetements de football' on Friday at Marsell Paradise, nss presents a conversation about the relationship between football and fashion with Francesco Abazia, Giacomo Detomaso, Federico Manasse from Gazzetta Dello Sport and Franco Tongja, a footballer from Odense Boldklub and the Italian U20 national team.
