Fast-food in Milan is on the increase, but, except for the youngsters, it is still fundamentally alien to the Milanese when they want to spend a pleasant evening tasting either the traditional Milanese cuisine accompanied by some excellent Italian wine or else the most innovative international flavors which can be tried in the more recent Japanese, Indian, Mexican, Thai or African restaurants.
Although saffron is still the distinctive ingredient of almost all dishes alla Milanese, today the Milanese cuisine is no longer as lavish and over-elaborated as in the past and often its main ingredients are freshness, simplicity and good quality. In Milan, if the weather allows to eat out in the open air, you will be surprised to discover how every conceivable open space is filled with tables and chairs, providing the ideal setting for a special evening; no doubt you'll end up, like most Italians, relaxing at the table even when dinner is over for the sheer pleasure of making and entertaining friends, watching passers by and enjoying the nice summertime atmosphere.
