Great place for realistic fruit. The fruit-based ones surprised me the most, especially the arachide. The pistachio was a bomb.
Dishes mentioned
Vanilla Bean
The vanilla bean has caramel inside, a layer of caramel, and then a dark chocolate glaze. Very good.
Orange
The orange is fresh and delicious. The crunch is satisfying. It's fresher than the one from the previous place, which was more indulgent. This one is even fuller inside.
Lampone
The raspberry is full and crunchy. It's very fresh. It's better than the one from Marzia Caruso — I don't taste the acidity like I did there. It has a different, better flavor.
Nocciola
The hazelnut has kataifi pastry inside, a layer of sponge cake, mousse, and crunchy chocolate. The kataifi adds a special crunch that's very appealing. The sponge cake is neutral and accompanies everything well. Aesthetically it could be improved to look more like a hazelnut, but it's very good.
