Milan Issue: Valentina Scambias Guide to the Entertaining Scene

When in Milan, do as the Milanese do And if your local guide is Valentina Scambia a mother, fundraiser for nonprofts and all-around It Girl then youre bound to hit up the best, buzziest spots. Here, photographed in her home wearing Torys striped canvas dress, she tells us where to go in Milan once the sun sets

The cant-miss restaurant in Milan

La Latteria, a family-owned trattoria no credit cards here. Must order: meatballs and tomato rice.

And my personal favorite

Giacomo Bistrot feels like home.

The local dish

Riso giallo (A.K.A. risotto alla Milanese).

Best spot for a cocktail

Ceresio 7, with a wonderful rooftop and pool to take in the sun, especially in the summer. Amazing view of the city.

And the favorite of locals

Bar Jamaica a must for Milaneses.

Best place for live music

Blue Note, where there are live performances of top Italian and international bands every day.

Best nightlife scene

Plastic they recently changed the location but not the atmosphere. Funnest place for Saturday nights.

And for a quiet night out

Nobu Armani.

For an only-in-Milan experience, I recommend

Triennale Museum, plenty of international and local art shows, with a fantastic terrace for lunch.

One secret only a local would know

Pasticceria Marchesi best in the world!!!
