Pasticceria da Gigi

South Coast


A local institution, this pocket-size pasticceria tantalises with an array of artful dolci – try the delicious cannoli (pastry tubes filled with creamy ricotta) – and tasty gluten-free ice cream. It also does a good cornetto (croissant) and cappuccino, ideal for a classic Italian breakfast.
