Baratti & Milano

• Global rating: 0.0
• Address: Piazza Castello, 29
• Description: Find this jewel of post-liberty sophistication near the entrance to the Galleria dell'Industria Subalpina under the arches of Piazza Castello. An old confectionery, it was opened in 1873 by the partners Milano and Baratti who soon gained the title of 'suppliers to the royal household'. It is almost a ritual here, to take tea or hot chocolate accompanied by an assortment of bignole, sweet pastry cases filled with zabaglione, vanilla, chocolate or hazelnut, all with a glazed topping. The bronze bas-reliefs on the façade, the brass clock, the large mirrors and the lamps date back to the shop's refurbishment in 1909. Source: igougo
