Description

Behind the counter of this calm, elegant shop, staff introduce visitors to the menu with a tasting tray, explaining flavor profiles like a mini chocolate tour. The recipe legacy dates back to 1878, utilizing premium ingredients like Piedmont hazelnuts for chocolates that skew rich rather than overly sweet. The selection is highly accommodating, featuring gluten-free, vegan, kosher, and no-added-sugar treats, including a dedicated lineup of vegan gelato flavors like Aztec chocolate and raspberry. Coffee is also served.
