Gelateria Buonacore

Capri


Ideal for quick takeaways, this popular, down-to-earth snack bar does a roaring trade in savoury and sweet treats. Hit the spot with panini (sandwiches), stuffed peppers, waffles and the legendary ice cream. Hard to beat, though, are the delicate but filling sfogliatelle (cinnamon-infused ricotta in a puff-pastry shell; €2.50) and the feather-light speciality caprilu al limone (lemon and almond cakes).
