As always, we've gathered the best nss magazine recommendations for your free time.

Here are 5 things to do in Milan this weekend, from May 23 to 25.

To Eat - Gloria Osteria

Open for just a year in the heart of Milan, Gloria Osteria is preparing to launch a new gastronomic project aimed at all lovers of fine dining. The restaurant is kicking off a series of four-hands dinners, featuring special menus created by some of the most renowned and promising Italian chefs that will be "guests" in the restaurant's kitchen. This week, the menu has been curated by Michelin-starred Chef Luciano Monosilio and Chef Manuel Prota, who are bringing a fully Roman cuisine to Gloria. But in the coming weeks, more guest chefs are coming so keep your eyes open. To book, simply visit the restaurant’s website.
