The Black Stuff In Udine

09/03/2025: After many years I return to Udine and with pleasure I stop at the pastry shop.....always excellent staff and environment, good cappuccino and vast choice of pastries and desserts. Only flaw......I would advise the owner to provide for modernization of the bathroom, not acceptable for such a long, it loses prestige!

08/03/2025: It's my favorite place! The kindness of the staff, the professionalism and the elegance of the ways make it a place of times gone by. I call it "vintage" for this reason. For breakfast it is well stocked but I usually go there for an aperitif. The cocktails are prepared to perfection (not watered down like in many places in the city (where on earth do they ask you what type of Vermouth you prefer for the Americano?!). They are also always accompanied by excellent appetizers. Friday evening is often a special evening with live music, always in the style of the place. Compared to many chaotic places in the centre, standard, impersonal and often poor in treatment, Friuli stands out for its style: you don't go there simply because it's trendy, but because you know it, you loyal and it has become a small luxury that you allow yourself, almost a comfort zone!
