Milano is rolling out a seasonal menu built around cheese and indulgent desserts, aimed at diners looking for festive comfort food. The special offerings combine shareable starters, two Christmas pizzas and chocolate-forward sweets, and will be available throughout the holiday period.
Star starter: a cheese centrepiece
The menu’s showpiece is the Three Cheese Fondue Wreath, a ring designed for communal dining with a molten cheese fondue at its centre. It’s intended as a shareable starter that leans into warming, convivial flavours.

Alongside it sits a playful twist on a classic: Dough Balls in Blankets. Small dough parcels are wrapped in crisp pancetta and paired with rosemary, Gran Milano cheese and a caramelised red onion chutney.
Pizzas with seasonal toppings
Two limited-edition pizzas join the lineup. The first, called the Christmas Crackler Pizza, features pulled pork slow-cooked with fennel and rosemary, layered with mozzarella, pancetta and potato on a béchamel base, then finished with parsley, apple sauce and crispy crackling.
The other pizza focuses on cheese contrasts: a cheddar sauce base blended with blue cheese and mozzarella, topped after baking with burrata, Gran Milano cheese, sun-dried tomato, a pine kernel pesto and fresh basil.
Desserts built for sharing — or not
For a sweet finish there are two notable desserts. The Loaded Snowball Dough Balls pair the restaurant’s dough balls with cinnamon and icing sugar and are served with a white chocolate sauce for dipping.
The Cracking Christmas Brownie is described as a warm Belgian chocolate brownie, topped with vanilla gelato and a decorative chocolate shell with white chocolate detailing.
When to try it
The festive menu arrives on 3 November and will remain on offer until 4 January 2027. The selection is positioned for the busy weeks around Christmas and New Year, providing options for small groups and larger gatherings alike.
