More Dishes to Try in MilanAnother dish from the rural tradition, another dish of meat. The cassoeula is heavy and elaborate, though a must try of Milanese cuisine. It is made of different cuts of pork meat (sausages, rind, ribs), with the same old idea of not wasting anything, and Savoy cabbage, to be slowly cooked together with sautéed vegetables and tomato sauce. It is severed with slices of grilled polenta on the side. To find the original Cassoeula, Antica Trattoria della Pesa is recommended, for its delicious cuisine that sticks to the tradition and yet is able to be always up to date. Set in a building where Milanese used to weight goods and calculate exercise duties, it is a restaurant since 1880, in Viale Pasubio 10, north of the city centre close to Garibaldi station, which can be reached with M2 and M5 metro lines (Green and Lilac).
