A spectacle of colours and scents, the local market in Via Tabacchi - open every Saturday morning - is worth a visit if only to discover what the Milanese bring to the table.Seasonal fruit and vegetables arrive here from every part of Italy and at prices cheaper than the supermarket. The variety of produce is endless. Looking for wild fennel? Here it is.Would you like to taste alpine cheeses, mozzarella from Puglia or gorgonzola from Lombardy? Among the many stalls, I recommend Lucia's in the middle of Via Tabacchi.It is said that fish is fresher in Milan than in seaside towns. A saying that finds confirmation at the fish stalls of the Via Tabacchi market. At Ornella's, the last stall on the right-hand side of Via Baravalle, you can buy anchovies and have them freshly cleaned at no extra cost; Ornella will deliver them to you already nice and ready to marinate.
Via Odoardo Tabacchi - 20136 Milan Every Saturday from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.
