City Guide: Milan with Lisa Corti
Feel like going somewhere else? Pack your suitcase and don't forget your new Lisa Corti Advent Calendar! To mark the arrival of this new (very) limited edition, we asked Ida Corti, General Manager of the Milanese brand, to share with us the best addresses not to be missed in Milan. The perfect way to experience La Dolce Vita.
For a gourmet and flowery interlude, Fioraio Bianchi Caffè
There's something truly enchanting about Fioraio Bianchi, a florist-turned-café that feels like a hidden poetic corner in the heart of Milan. I like to start my day here, with a coffee, surrounded by bouquets and the discreet scent of fresh flowers. It's like stepping out of the hustle and bustle of the city into a place where beauty sets the pace.
Via Montebello, 7, 20121 Milano
For an hour to yourself, Centro Onze
Onze is much more than a wellness center: as soon as I enter, the noise of the city fades away. Between yoga, Pilates and treatments, there's always an atmosphere of calm and attention. It's where I go to reconnect with myself, recharge my batteries and regain balance in the midst of Milan's hectic pace.
Via Giuseppe Parini, 16, 20121 Milano
To sip Dolce Vita, N'Ombra de Vin
This wine bar has a magic all of its own. Nestled in the Brera district, it blends elegance and history, with vaulted cellars that turn every glass into a real celebration. I love the atmosphere of the place, both lively and intimate, where you can spend hours chatting and discovering wines from all over the world.
Via S. Marco, 2, 20121 Milano
For a green day out, Giardini Pubblici
The Giardini is where I go when I need some fresh air. Strolling along the shady alleys, among families, children and people reading on the benches, I always feel a deep sense of serenity. A reminder that even in a dynamic city, there are corners where time slows down and nature slowly reclaims its rights.
To escape, Cinema Anteo
For me, the Anteo has always been more than a cinema. It's where I discover films I wouldn't see anywhere else, where stories from all over the world come closer to me. The atmosphere is intimate, almost like someone's living room, but filled with people who share the same love of cinema.
P.za XXV Aprile, 8, 20121 Milano
For a taste of Milanese delights, Eutopia
Eutopia is one of those places where you can immediately feel the love and care that goes into every detail. It's not just a patisserie, but a veritable artisanal laboratory, where recipes are reinvented with creativity and precision. For me, Eutopia embodies the beauty of Milan's contemporary culinary scene: rooted in tradition, but always curious, playful and open to new ideas.
Via Alessandro Volta, 19, 20121 Milano
For a cultural outing, visit the Fondazione Feltrinelli
The building itself is striking - angular, transparent, modern - but what I love most about the Fondazione Feltrinelli is its cultural energy. Conferences, exhibitions, books: everything here seems alive and in constant dialogue with the world. It's a place from which I always emerge with a new idea in mind.
Viale Pasubio, 5, 20154 Milano MI, Italy
