Milan II

I don’t think I would have had nearly as much fun without my faithful steward Carlo, who I first made friends with in ‘05 when I was living in Barcelona and reconnected last year when he moved to NYC.

Caffe Novecento

Everything style-wise seems generally more interesting in Europe, case in point– Carhartt. The jacket in the window is a recently released collaboration with EYE- Comme Des Garçons.

Subway espresso! I’m waiting for these to start popping up in NYC… they would surely make a killing.

Bar Atomic– sort of reminded me of places in Portland.

I kept asking Carlo to take me to a rather unique and locals only type of place. ‘Trattoria Bar’ certainly fit the bill, with crazy art on the walls and the whole place run by this old lady… she was also the waitress and chef– it was kindof like eating at your crazy Milanese grandmother’s. Really amazing.. try finding that shit in a guidebook!

Some beautiful looking apartment.. I suppose the photo doesn’t quite do it justice, but I’ll post it for memory and feelings sake.

The last stop of the night was at Plastik Club. Apparently the night to go is Sunday when the DJ plays a free-for-all mix of tunes, and everyone gets loose. Luckily it was Sunday, and that was basically what happened..
