It will take you over an hour each way because you first need to take a train to downtown and then the local subway.

I liked the Carmel Kosher Pizzaria (Pizza E Carmel)

I'm acting a bit lazy here, but which hotels programs have options for using points in Milan, and do you have any recommendations?

Note that if it's in august (when much of the city shuts down) there may be less available kosher food.

I will be in Milan for one day in July 2012 and then traveling to Florence and Venice.   Plan on staying at Westin using spg points. Are you saying that there will not be kosher food in the summer? Has anyone stayed in The Westin Palace?
