Description
Sampling is encouraged to help navigate the flavors, which range from classic chocolate to crème caramel. While the gelato remains covered in the tins, standout orders include an affogato pairing espresso with Mandorla di Toritto and Fior di latte. Warm crepes are filled with Nutella or white chocolate. The bright, kid-friendly cafe has plenty of comfortable seating, though the drip coffee runs a bit weak.
