Fool proof food

Recipe for Coffee Sabaudo.

The area of Piedmont and Turin in Italy is famous for its chocolate and hazelnuts. I always look forward to having a Bicerim when I arrive, but this year I discovered a new treat at Gertosio, one of the legendary cafes in Via Lagrange.

Spread some chocolate around the inside of a tall wide glass; add a shot of double espresso. Top with whipped cream and sprinkle generously with chopped toasted hazelnuts. So divine, you can’t imagine. Worth flying to Turin especially to taste despite what it did to my waistline!
