AI summary of what 9 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about the Supremo carbonara, calling it a masterclass in creamy, porky perfection, and the overall vibe is one of rustic, unpretentious warmth that makes every bite feel like a celebration.
“This is the Supremo Carbonara — a crazy creation with carbonara cream and truffle pearls inside, plus a cascade of cream and pearls on top, with fries on the side. It's extreme, almost unnecessary, but fun. The bread is super crunchy, the meat is the same as the classic. The truffle smell hits you. It's hard to eat, but the gloves they give you make it fun. The fries were a bit dry and cold, unfortunately. Overall, it's good, but the original is so good it doesn't need all this fuss.”

Porco Brado is a fantastic spot for pork sandwiches, with incredible quality and value, though the floors and fries could use improvement.

Panino Porco Brado Originale
This is the classic Porco Brado sandwich — bread and pork shoulder. The meat is incredible, like butter. The bread is even crunchier than the one I made at home. The flavor is identical to the packaged version, but here there's more meat. It's a 10-euro sandwich weighing almost 400 grams. In terms of value for money, it's up there with Antico Vinaio. I'd rank it second in my personal list, just behind Antico Vinaio. The meat is monstrous, truly.

Panino Porco Brado
This is one of the best packaged sandwiches I've ever eaten in my life. The bread is incredible, it becomes crunchy and flaky in the oven. The meat is amazing — even the expired one was still delicious, with a strong barbecue flavour. I'd say it's even better than some freshly made sandwiches. Go buy 70 of them immediately.
Porco Brado makes the best sandwich in Europe, with a perfect balance of pork and vinegar.

Panino con Spalla di Maiale e Scaglie di Parmigiano 24 Mesi e Sfere di Aceto Rosé
This is the best sandwich in Europe 2017/2020. It's brutal and gentle at the same time — a luxury sandwich with 24-month Parmigiano shavings and rosé vinegar spheres. Maybe the Parmigiano is even too much; the pork and vinegar alone would be enough.
Porco Brado is a solid panino spot in Milan with amazing bread and quality ingredients, perfect for a casual bro night but not for a first date.

Di Lusso
This is the Di Lusso. The bread is amazing, the meat is great, the cheese is incredible. It's €13. Honestly, anything you put between this bread would be good. It's a bit more classic than the Carbonara Chic, less pushed. I'd give it an 8. It's a solid panino, perfect for when you want to treat yourself.
Porco Brado in Milan serves incredible pork sandwiches with a unique wine sauce, a must-try street food spot.

Panino con Spalla e Collo di Maiale e Salsa al Vino
This sandwich is like a super gourmet pork kebab. The meat is shoulder and neck, and the wine sauce is something I've never tasted before — it's crazy. I'm dying of hunger and this is amazing. I'd want another one.
Panino con Parmigiano e Perle di Aceto
Second sandwich, parmesan and vinegar pearls. I preferred the other one, not just because there was a sauce here — no, even though the spheres act as a sauce. Two sandwiches without breathing, I'd have 100 more of these days.
