Through Lufthansa’s Milan Insider experience, Indian travel creator Tanya Khanijow embarked on an extraordinary food adventure, revealing Milan’s food gems. Guided by local food experts Matteo Villa and Livio Cesareo, Tanya’s journey was a savoury dive into the city’s rich culinary heritage—far beyond the well-trodden tourist tracks.&nbsp;</p>

<p bis_size="{&quot;x&quot;:7,&quot;y&quot;:162,&quot;w&quot;:813,&quot;h&quot;:85,&quot;abs_x&quot;:40,&quot;abs_y&quot;:1852}">Let’s set the record straight—Milan isn’t just about pizza and pasta. Tanya’s taste journey began at one of Milan’s vibrant markets, where the air is filled with the aromas of freshly baked bread, cured meats, and of course, Italy’s finest cheeses. Think of it as a marketplace where “farm-to-fork” isn’t a trend but a way of life. Matteo and Livio led the way, teaching Tanya how the city’s locals choose their ingredients with the care and precision of master chefs. These markets are Milan’s heartbeat, where seasonal produce transforms into timeless dishes.&nbsp;</p>

<p bis_size="{&quot;x&quot;:7,&quot;y&quot;:342,&quot;w&quot;:813,&quot;h&quot;:85,&quot;abs_x&quot;:40,&quot;abs_y&quot;:2032}">Next stop? Hidden trattorias. Forget the crowded tourist spots—Matteo and Livio took Tanya to the true culinary heart of Milan. These cosy, off-the-beaten-path eateries are where locals dine, and for good reason. It was here that Tanya experienced the unforgettable risotto alla Milanese, with its luxurious saffron hues, and a perfectly tender ossobuco, slow-cooked to melt-in-the-mouth perfection. These aren’t just meals; they are stories on a plate, each bite connecting good moments to present.&nbsp;</p>

While often confused with ice cream, Matteo revealed that authentic gelato is smoother and silkier, made with less fat and served slightly warmer, enhancing its creamy texture. Here’s an insider tip he shared: look for gelato kept covered in the shop—this is where you’ll find the real deal. Tanya, now in the know, realised she’d never see gelato the same way again!&nbsp;</p>

Milan, known for its high fashion and timeless elegance, also harbours a culinary treasure trove that will leave even the savviest foodies drooling for more. Through Lufthansa’s Milan Insider experience, Indian travel creator Tanya Khanijow embarked on an extraordinary food adventure, revealing Milan’s food gems. Guided by local food experts Matteo Villa and Livio Cesareo, Tanya’s journey was a savoury dive into the city’s rich culinary heritage—far beyond the well-trodden tourist tracks. Milan: More Than Just Pizza and Pasta Let’s set the record straight—Milan isn’t just about pizza and pasta. Tanya’s taste journey began at one of Milan’s vibrant markets, where the air is filled with the aromas of freshly baked bread, cured meats, and of course, Italy’s finest cheeses. Think of it as a marketplace where “farm-to-fork” isn’t a trend but a way of life. Matteo and Livio led the way, teaching Tanya how the city’s locals choose their ingredients with the care and precision of master chefs. These markets are Milan’s heartbeat, where seasonal produce transforms into timeless dishes. Aso read | Trattorias That Whisper Secrets Next stop? Hidden trattorias. Forget the crowded tourist spots—Matteo and Livio took Tanya to the true culinary heart of Milan. These cosy, off-the-beaten-path eateries are where locals dine, and for good reason. It was here that Tanya experienced the unforgettable risotto alla Milanese, with its luxurious saffron hues, and a perfectly tender ossobuco, slow-cooked to melt-in-the-mouth perfection. These aren’t just meals; they are stories on a plate, each bite connecting good moments to present. And then came the dessert course—a scoop (or three) of gelato. While often confused with ice cream, Matteo revealed that authentic gelato is smoother and silkier, made with less fat and served slightly warmer, enhancing its creamy texture. Here’s an insider tip he shared: look for gelato kept covered in the shop—this is where you’ll find the real deal. Tanya, now in the know, realised she’d never see gelato the same way again!
