I would wait a couple of hours before feeding him again. Give his stomach time to calm down. If he doesn't vomit again, give Milo a small amount of food and wait 20-30 minutes. If he doesn't vomit, give him a little more. If he vomits again, I recommend an exam by a vet to determine why he is vomiting. Good luck and kisses to Milo!
