The Milano Files
The Milano Files champions the food, wine, beverage, and lifestyle culture of Milan - home to Italy's most electric food scene. Host Jaclyn DeGiorgio, who considers herself Milan's cheerleader-in-chief, is a food tour guide as well as a food, wine, and travel writer who's lived in the Lombard capital for over a decade. The fiercest champion for her adopted city and its surroundings you'll ever meet, Jaclyn celebrates Milan's, and most of Northern Italy's, overlooked, though no less noteworthy allure--especially on the food front.

2022 Milan dining highlights
Food writer Jaclyn DeGiorgio discusses some of her top dining experiences in Milan from the past year.

Below are links to the restaurants she mentions in the article, and here's her blog post about Via Melzo, Milan's de facto "restaurant row."
