Milan

Where we all get our hair done (they are great at crazy colors).

The tattoo shop of the “cool” kids of Milan. I don’t go here but they do cool residencies sometimes.

Similar to five guys in style but it’s not a real fast food chain. It was opened by somebody in the Milan scene. Nice burgers, cool environment.

Chinese restaurant I love. Mad cheap, AWESOME Food.

It's a coworking/restaurant and hang out spot, they make open sandwiches that are banging (it’s in Chinatown).

Incredible Tuscan food (a bit expensive but definitely worth it).

Cheap home made food, cash only. Like grandma’s kitchen.



Typical Milano food, I bring all my guests here for real local food (higher end but worth the money).

Iconic streetwear store and distribution company in Italy.

Best magazine and book selection (close to Prada foundation).

They make their own gin, the owners used to work in fashion and design. It’s an incredible place for late night drinks.

Vintage/flea market + lots of food trucks, music. It happens once a months but they have now extended it to every weekend. It’s set in an old factory - you need LOTS of time here.

It's a squatted building where they organise different art shows, photography exhibitions, different music nights. The worst stuff goes on here but it’s a staple in Milan culture. It’s very fun!
