Not far from Piazza Santa Croce, a solo clerk slowed by multiple guests at 09h00, those not in the mood for a large Strawberry Tar should direct their attention to Viennoserie filled with Jam or a textbook Cornetti about to burst with Cream.

I got mine made with the Florence special flavor "buontalenti" and it was great.

The owner treats everyone like royalty, he passes out glasses of wine along with cheeses, meats and bread with olive oil.

This is definitely worth making a quick pop in this place just to say hi! Weirdly wonderful!
