I'm always on the hunt for interesting places to check out in Milan and lately I've found a few good leads of bars and restaurants that might be worth the time to search out.
On
Swide, they've published lists of the
top aperitivo places in Milan and their
writers' favorite haunts around the city. Swide, an online magazine written in English, is connected with the Italian fashion label Dolce & Gabbana.
N'Ombra de Vin, a wine bar in Brera, found it's way on to both of these lists. Based on their descriptions it seemed like a place worthy of checking out.
There are some great pictures on
this site.

When we arrived the outdoor tables were completely full of young Italians, but I had read about the downstairs, so we headed inside. There were a few tables occupied at 8 o'clock on a Saturday night and we sat a huge central table built for 40. The vibe changed while we were there, from a mellow wine bar to a DJ-ed set of American 80's hits. It was a little strange, but this place feels like a nice option for a night out where you intend to spend a little money. Reservations are probably necessary if you intend to eat dinner, as they are almost anywhere in Milan on any given night.

Verdict? A cool vibe, big wine selection and a good place to start a night out.
