Cenacolo and Cinese food

Today, I caught up on some housework and then took some time to walk around and explore my neighborhood. Corso Vechelli is really busy on a Saturday afternoon! The sidewalks were packed with shoppers. Less than 10 minutes walk from my apartment is the Chiesa di Santa Maria Delle Grazie, home to Leonardo da Vinci's Last Supper. I will see the artwork in a few weeks. I bought tickets to view it the first week I arrived in October, and the first available reservation was a whole 8 weeks out! Some people were curious to know if there were any Chinese restaurants out here. Of course! I've spotted quite a few 'Ristorante Cinese' around Milan and even in the smaller cities. This one is just around the corner from me. I picked up a Take Away menu and the prices are really cheap, although the menu items look rather dubious to me. Do we have any 'ravioli' and 'omelette' dishes in our cuisine? I haven't heard too many good reviews about Chinese food here either. I just might have to order some to go one of these nights. As an 'experiment'!
