Gnam In Azzano san paolo

12/07/2024: The history of stracciatella dates back to the 18th century in Bergamo’s Citta Alta with a place called Bettolina After World War I, it was replaced by a café named “La Marianna” where the owner first pioneered stracciatella ice cream. So thats what we went to try - good flavour and texture. It's busy given its popularity but we found some seating.

09/04/2024: Chose this place in the Old Town of Bergamo at the base of the funicular towards the castle. Couldn't have asked for anywhere better - the Italian pastries and cakes are mouthwatering and delicious. Chose the polenta cake - filled with a soft sweet sponge - and the three layered chocolate mousse cake, which explains itself. Both were excellent and not expensive. Also had a tasty smoked ham brioche and coffee. Altogether an excellent lunch at an affordable price. Well worth a visit.
