It's cold. In Milan is officially cold ! maglioncioni It's time to warm and chills when you exit the bed, covered with piles of tasty (my favorite is the one that gave me the last Christmas of the Barilla Barbapapa!) And on film d ' love, red nose (the face of any great makeup!) and true "vital necessity" of gloves, to continue with the litigation Coat: Close all that you die of cold "-" open and indoors in hot weather and then when you go out it's worse! "-" Close, the close, close "brrrrrrrrrrrr" and that terrible moment when you get frost in the car . It's time to be squatting it is not possible at least to their prince to the couch, all and always with a cup of steaming tea in her hands;)
Oh what a beautiful feeling!
When the storm rages outside (the storm is ... everyone has their own way of perceiving the cold !!!), 5 seems to have the night, the glasses fog up just that so that we can draw a little heart and you .... little music, a good book even more true in our case is a good notebook, and her, the mug!
Frankly the little knowledge I have on the different qualities solely derived from popular wisdom (!) And an interesting conversation with the clerk of a shop but when it comes to buying pleasure, an irresistible attraction to boxes or bags containing the delicious degree of interest in search of some new combination of taste, well, then I'm an expert!
(all forms of shopping in these maidens is welcome!)
I must admit that I super-hyper or departments with those nice herbal teas have always given great satisfaction to Milan but there are also many shops or specialized departments of stores in which to find true delicacies. I'm certain I'm in love, and of course I can not pleasant to tell you the reasons and give you the address!
If you are in the square area 5 Days have already forced two stages. One is the Coin: for many reasons among which " EATALY " on level -1. What to say? It is a local impact "fresh" with lots of white and wood with a double soul dealer of Italian Food and wine (it seems almost a supermercatino) and a real bar. Here is a full wall devoted to tea, herbal teas and coffee and it's certainly not difficult to find something sweet to go with it. But is the idea behind this restau-shop that will convince you and take you, in my opinion, to wander far beyond the. I quote from their website: "Eataly was created with the intent to disprove the assertion that quality products can be available to only a privileged few as expensive and difficult to find." If you consider that part of their philosophy that concerns over their willingness to help shape greater awareness of food (that is, be careful how you choose a food and characteristics that must be about: origin, processing of raw materials, nutritional properties ...) val well worth a visit. Second stage: Lefe Feltrinelli the appendix with a gadget department well stocked and fairly tasty, but a little one-note on the beloved but also drink cups, infusers, which serve it with colored sugars, teapots ...
Ongoing Magenta 1, at the very beginning near the intersection with via Marvel (so to speak ... where there Madina ... another good reason to go from there! ;)) Is the Grocery Soana . Real (and only?) You can also find grocery and other products as well as some fancy soap, not formalizzatevi not be chic but has its own ever since! Here you happen to be served by a distinguished gentleman (perhaps Mr. Soana?) Which in addition to knowing how to listen at the same time serve-and-acting any conversation that takes place in the store knows orient yourself according to your taste between the rich and the choice of fantastic jams:) there I quote only a few flavors: orange, almond, chocolate, caramel .... Mmmmm!
And last but not least my favorite: Cargo. What can I say? Cargo Cargo. Well you did on the crap we should really go! It is a fantastic mega store concept built on the ashes of the former Ovaltine factory (think of the fate, I hated it!) The younger brother of "highly placed" (practically in Corso Como) Hi-Tech. The location alone already worth a visit. The products range from ethnic to modern furniture rising from timeless classic. There are pieces of furniture, bathroom furniture, crockery and cutlery for all tastes. An entire department only with everything you need to organize wardrobe and drawers, infinite items, candles and scents to no end, the beautiful library of the traveler, some small appliances, a floor dedicated to vases and decorations for the home. A small restaurant, a stand for furry friends, peparto garden and garden, unique pieces .... And so on and put them to Cargo! It's a little 'out of the way but please do not be deterred, we link the site (click here ) with all the straight to get there. once ... and gets straight to the second floor-but unfortunately only if it is Saturday or Sunday, the "Maison du Mekong" tea room. It really is a space of tranquility! Soft lighting, oriental furniture, large sofas to sink, free wi-fi and lots of books available to read.
only flaw: When I was there with the girls we did not miss a plate of assorted biscuits. As the waitress told us that they were about a dozen, taken by a moment of composure we only ordered 1. They were tiny! Morsels! It is clear that he did not understand with whom it had to do! Before the cups with the tea infusion were still in there already all gone ... I suggest at least 2!
Ah! Of course there is the possibility to buy what you tasted, or a one thousand degl'altri tastes.
I think I have told you everything. Maybe I just a little biscuit and as we found, after a certain size must always be good on all but the ginger from the workshop of the Swedish IKEA myst have of my snack ok!
And you? What are your vices winter?
Happy tea time!
Brrrrrrrrr:)
