Exquisito café ☕ de los mejores que he probado, los que llevan crema realmente son muy cremosos y no necesitan azúcar. También venden panini exquisito con ingredientes frescos

Un café italien d'exception ! Le service est à la fois courtois & très agréable. Un petit conseil : allez-y tôt le matin pour éviter la foule & profiter pleinement d'une belle expérience en toute sérénité. Une adresse incontournable du quartier.
