Where to eat in Milan - Tajolino
A project born from the creators of Osteria Tajoli, Tajolino takes shape near Fondazione Prada to accompany food lovers from breakfast to after dinner. There are Pasticceria Buonarroti's croissants for the early morning, and then focaccia, toast, salads, and tartare for lunch. Tajoli's aperitif is a classic: wine, beer, a traditional cocktail, and then cicchetti. The menu perfectly matches the cozy atmosphere of the place, with a retro look thanks to prints and details that tell the story of Italian pop culture.
