"Growing up in Canada, I’m more of a two eggs on toast, sharp cheddar, maple bacon, and English muffin kind of girl. Pavé has a breakfast sandwich that rivals the best.

I love Si Ma Townhouse for cocktails; it’s so fun! For dinner, I love Trippa because I love Radi, the sommelier, and Diego’s heartfelt Lombardian/ Veronese cuisine.”

"The Pinocoteca di Brera is a must. It’s the most beautiful museum, replete with many Italian masterpieces. Here, you will see paintings by Caravaggio, Modigliani, Bellini and Raphael all in one afternoon.

The Duomo and the Galleria are obvious must-sees. A trip to the nearby Milanese grocery shop PECK is a nice bookend to the Duomo visit.”
