What should I NOT eat?
Italy is famous for its varied gastronomic scene, and it is sometimes hard to know which dish belongs to which area of production. Due its long complicated history, full of political and geographical divisions, gastronomical culture is similarly fragmented. While it's possible to find specialties in restaurants managed by expats, this is a list of famous italian food not typical of Milan.
