Michela from Milan

About me Hey, I am Michela Susanna. Originally from up North I've lived and worked in Milan for quite a bit of time. As a designer and urbanist I love wondering while wandering, spotting new places and things and immersing myself into the urban hustle and bustle. That's my lifeblood, that's how I tick and where I get my inspiration from. Being an urban 'nerd' from head to toe I...

Ma' Hidden Kitchen Supper Club Milan

Cool social dining

""Ma' Hidden Kitchen Supper Club" has picked up on the dinner club trend already established in NYC and London. I just love the design side of it as well."

As the most un-Italian, experimental place one can imagine, Milan picked up the dinner club trend already well established in NYC, London etc. Melissa and Lele are the amazing folks regularly hosting social dinners in their design loft. Plus theatre events and concerts with aperitivo beforehand.

There are several reasons why I am one of the regulars: Where else can you go to enjoy high-class Italian food with an innovative twist, meet new people, feel at home, play table soccer, and share one big table in the living room of two designers without spending an arm and a leg? Nowhere else in Milan!

Ma's atmosphere is absolutely unique and authentic, warm and welcoming, quirky and cool. Melissa and Lele are great hosts, taking care of every wish one might have. Being a designer myself, I especially love the design side of it: The whole loft is a well-curated, eclectic collection of design objects, put together with a great hand, just lovely. As an add-on, you can take home every object you fall in love with for a very decent price.

Now, the food. It is prepared in an open kitchen, using the freshest seasonal ingredients, and it is always super-delicious. There are several resident and guest chefs cooking while you eat the four-course meal. My favourite is Stefano Ratti, a genius of fancy, niche and surprising dishes. Italian hospitality at its best.

Make sure to register and have a quick finger booking your seat, it sells out in no time.

Frizzi & Lazzi

Your favorite beer garden ever

"Frizzi & Lazzi" is one of my old-time favorite beer gardens in Milan. It's an unassuming, easy-going place that has become a point of reference since '82.

Great aperitivo

"Al Fresco" is my Milan cafe/restaurant I'd never visited because it was just next door to my place! Let me tell you, that was a mistake, if only for...
