La Dispensa di Padernello In Borgo san giacomo

07/04/2025: You realize that it is a pastry shop/restaurant when you look up and see the burgundy banner waving. The historic location is splendid, refined, embellished with frescoes, marble, gilded stucco and Venetian floors. The third room is wonderful, furnished with red velvet sofas and glass tables, which reflect the majestic ceiling. The first and fourth (restaurant) rooms are more than fusion style, a little too kitsch. Wicker armchairs, Ming dupe vases, Chinese lantern chandeliers, leopard-print carpets and both painted and ceramic tigers... but it's purely a matter of personal taste. Art Nouveau bathrooms with mega beehive mirror, perfectly sanitized. As for the pastries, I found the croissant with berry jam delicious. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. The acidity of the berries pairs perfectly with the butteriness of the dough. Quality coffee, as well as soy milk, with which it was stained, thick and foamy. The staff is very kind, attentive and smiling... you can tell it from their eyes. For those who complain about the costs... note that in any pastry shop in Brescia worthy of the name, the prices at the table are very similar and the location is certainly not in the slightest comparable to this one. Impeccable cleanliness. Compliments!
