Operating since 1936 in Porta Romana, Cucchi maintains Milan's cafe traditions with vintage Formica tables and a long marble bar. The house specialty is the 'veneziana', a sugar-topped sweet bread that's Milan's lesser-known alternative to panettone. Neighborhood regulars come for the proper cappuccino and cornetto breakfast standing at the bar.
Order the 'michetta', Milan's traditional hollow roll, toasted with butter and jam - it's what locals eat here, not tourists.
