The best times are September\u2013November (great weather, league at its peak) and February\u2013April (the sprint to the end of the season, maybe Champions League). January is the cheapest but colder \u2014 Rome is pleasant even in winter, Milan less so.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<h3>Can I see both Milan and Inter on the same trip?<\/h3>\n<p>Yes! Both play at San Siro, so if they're playing during your week there \u2014 absolutely. The Milan derby (Milan vs Inter) is held twice a year. The full schedule is published in the summer.

Note \u2014 the cheapest tickets have no flexibility for date changes.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"faq-item\">\n<h3>Where can I find kosher food in Italy?<\/h3>\n<p>Rome is the best place for kosher food outside Israel. The Jewish Ghetto (Via del Portico d'Ottavia) offers excellent kosher restaurants like Nonna Betta and Ba'Ghetto with menus in Hebrew. Milan has a few limited options. Turin \u2014 minimal.
