TRAVELING IN STYLE.....Milan Italy: Food and Shopping!

Pizza Time! Mozzarella pomodorino pachino, ricotta, crudo di parma from Pizzeria Caputo Milan Italy

In my Part 2 of my "Travel In Style" Milan Blog (click HERE for my Part 1: Milan Cathedral Sightseeing Pics) it's time for the FOOD...and SHOPPING! Here is my Photo Gallery--For my shopping, I went straight to the Piazza del Duomo and the famous Galleria Vittorio Emanuel II Shopping Center. It's not really a "Shopping Center", as we know it back in the US, but for Milan, this fits the bill fabulously! In fact, it is one of the oldest shopping malls, which originally opened in 1877 (!). It has Prada, Versace and many more international brands, as well as well-appointed restaurants...

Retail Therapy: Shopping bags from Zara and Alcott...this was the day after the US Elections and I was depressed and needed some "retail therapy".

Post-election Room Service Dinner: My hotel in Milan was having a special of a bottle of white wine, cheese, salami/prosciutto plate for 20 Euros! Naturally, I said "Si!" Usually, this would be considered Appetizers but since it was just me...it was a nice full dinner! And it was DELIZIOSO!!!!
