Tue 30 Sep- we left for Trieste, Italy driven by Ivan. We actually drove through Slovenia for a short distance before entering Italy. From Trieste we took the train to Venice, where we changed trains for Milan. The Milan Centrale station was just across the street from Le Meridien Gallia, where we are staying, so it was just a short walk.
After a short rest, we took a walk past the Teatro Alla Scala and through the Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II and ended up in the Duomo area, where we decided to have dinner at the Ristorante Anzani as recommended by the book 'Top 10 Milan & the Lakes', but which seemed to be renamed to 'Al Cantinone'. We had a very nice Strevi Moscato d'Asti wine, shared a rucolo (arugula) salad with proscuitto (E`10), spaghetti with pine nuts, pepperoncini and bottarga (a dried seafood) (E15), and spaghetti with gamberi (shrimps) and zucchini (E13); total E59. It was a bit expensive, but worth it for the quality and ambience. The pasta was really good, a smooth texture and delightful taste, noticeably different and much better than we usually have.
