Brera District

Milan Food Walking Tour of Brera

Meet your guide near Milan’s Lanza-Brera Station and begin your 3-hour foodie tour of the city’s historic Brera district with your tour guide. The area has long been a haven for artists and intellectuals, drawing both residents and visitors drawn by the neighborhood’s bustling street markets and exciting nightlife. As you walk through the city, your guide tells you about its history and cuisine.

Learn about Milan’s evolution over time, from the historic Navigli neighborhood (where the city’s ancient canal system once existed) to the futuristic Porta Nuova neighborhood, which was built in preparation for Expo 2015. The city’s cuisine, like its architecture, has evolved over time, but many of the original dishes have survived. Learn about Milanese staples like risotto and polenta, and try traditional dishes like risotto with saffron and veal Milanese.

La Bicicletta Milano

Get your fill of local specialties while walking and conversing with your tour guide at up to six food stops. You may try traditional melanzane alla parmigiana (baked eggplant with Parmesan and tomatoes), mondeghili meatballs, and Milanese dishes as part of the tour, which changes depending on what’s in season.

You can also sample popular Italian sweets like gelato and cannoli, or indulge in melt-in-your-mouth slivers of culatello, a prized Parma ham, along with the local specialties. Drink an artisan Italian beer to wash down your meal, and then visit La Bicicletta, a hip art bar in Milan, for an aperitivo (a pre-dinner alcoholic drink).

Many bars in Milan host a lavish happy hour buffet with enough food to satisfy even the most ravenous of guests during the popular aperitivo hour. The tour concludes at Piazza XXV Aprile in central Milan after three hours of exploration of Brera and its atmospheric eateries.
