Here I drank the best coffee of my life. The espresso crema was so tender and stable that it left a unique structure in the cup.

Cannoli was so good we had to get a second one. We also had two scoops of ice cream, two espresso and one americano didn’t event pay 20 euros. Everything we had was good and the prices are very fair. Only downside is the cannoli is served on a type of parchment paper which dissolves as you eat it so you end up eating the cannoli paper. Still the best paper I ever ate so it’s not worth deducting a star for. We also seemed to be the only tourists there so that’s a good sign too. Strongly recommend.
