Hey FTers,

I use the term solid to mean restaurants that are great food, relaxed atmosphere and reasonably priced.

If you're a discerning local,where would you go on a Weds. night?

GF and I are doing an overnight in Milan in a few weeks and would like to find a spot that's not pretentious, touristy or overly fancy....just Solid.

Northern Italian food would be great, or just good pastas, but open to other suggestions as well.

We'll be coming in by train from Nice and staying near the Centrale Station for an early trip to MXP in the morning, but would love to find.

Last time I asked an American friend who lives there for a recommendation and he sent us to a place where the host was a "good friend".... turned out to be a horribly touristy dinner factory with menus in 8 languages and pictures, and a caricature of a host who was everyone's best friend the minute they walked in the door.

So..er... nothing like that please....

Thanks in advance.
