Milan has a very special ritual called "aperitivo" that's basically the Italian version of a "happy hour" with a huge food buffet with a variety of dishes that go from pasta to pizza to salad. People normally go after work and often end up having an aperitivo dinner because of all the food variety. Students tend to live off it because it is cheap alcohol and food! If you are an expert around town you know where to find the best "aperitivo" with the best cocktails and the nicest buffet. MOM is a place that everyone knows in Milan and everyone has been there at least once.
The bar is average but the ambiance is friendly and the pizza they serve with the cocktail is delicious. It is not a place that will leave you breathless because it is so unique and refined but it will leave you with a pleasant fun night where you probably ended up making news friends! I recommend coming here for drinks after work or a tour of the city so you can drink wine, eat cheap pizza and listen to some music!
