[edit] Origin

In the article it reads: "The term Neapolitan was taken fom the Neapolitan Pizza, which has these ingredients" In the spanish version it is said that the name comes from a restaurant called La Napolitana (or Nápoli, as I saw in another website) where it was invented. I'm not sure about this origin, but certainly the milanesa napolitana does not have the same ingredientes as the neapolitan pizza. The first one has tomato sauce, cheese, ham (usually) and a slice of sweet pepper. The neapolitan pizza is mainly a regular pizza with slices of tomatoes (and garlic). —Preceding unsigned comment added by 200.55.116.210 (talk • contribs)

Try ordering one in Argentina... Anyhow, I don't know about that restaurant, but it could be good to have both ethymologies. Mariano(t/c) 08:14, 16 August 2006 (UTC)


"""are a common meat dish in Argentina, later adpoted by Uruguay (mainly due to their great meat production) as well as in other Latin American countries."""


Where other than Argentina and URuguay are common the milanesas?

What has to do that neapolitan weird mexican food posted here with Neapolitan milanesas from Argentina?

That is totally out of topic i'll remove it please comfirm souces, before post it. AS long as I'm aware that recipes have nothing to do with the Italian Argentinian milanesa, At all!!. They are more related to Wiener Schnitzel in any case


Someone please post the sources of what is adding?? again what has that mexican recipe to do with the real milanesa?

Milanesa look like a typical Mexican recipe when you read this thread well, there is nothing like the original milanesa (that is common in Nothern Italy, Argentina and Uruguay) there.


I have been in Mexico try to ask for a milanesa ! They didn't even know what that means when my niece asked for milanesa y papas fritas hahah

Then you need to visit a different region of Mexico, they're not common in all regions. The fact that a Mexican milanesa is different than the Argentine one is not important, they are both called milanesa. Argentine and Spanish chorizo isn't like Mexican chorizo, either, but they're both called chorizo in English, so they go in the same article, at least in the Engligh language Wikipedia.

PLZ stop adding wrong facts or I would ask protection for this page!


Milanesas may not be eaten all over Mexico, but they certainly are a traditional food in some regions. In general, milanesas from different countries are not that distinct from one another: they usually amount to a delicious, thin steak that is breaded and fried. Also, some countries know it by a different name-- Cuba calls it "bistec empanizado." 69.235.89.184 02:15, 6 December 2006 (UTC)James Lopez

Aren't milanesas the equivalent of American country fried steak?--theDúnadan 23:35, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
Foe mee they seems quite similar. If they are the same food should they be different articles? Dentren | Talk 14:23, 4 December 2007 (UTC)
