Ca'puccino
More than just a place to rest your feet, Ca'puccino is a
barista's dream. The beverage menu alone presents an array of
delights unparalleled by any coffee bar in town. Mariano Semino is
known for spiking espresso with playfully flavoured creams, like
hazelnut, zabaione, marsala, or limoncino. He is also the recreator
of fabled Italian drinks like the Caffè del Professore from Napoli,
whose exact recipe is kept secret. Traditional Italian desserts
also find their way into the mix, with drinks such as Caffè al
Tiramisù, featuring tiramisu cream and a savoiardo biscuit, and
Caffè alla Panna Cotta on the menu.
This café gives guests a tour of the regional traditions of
Italy, including coffees, pastries, and sandwiches based on recipes
from Napoli, Torino, Sorrento, and Sicily. Sample delights such as
the Pastieria Napolitana, a traditional pastry of ricotta cheese
and candied fruit, or a scoop of authentic gelato, made without any
powder or colourings, only fresh, natural ingredients. For a
savoury treat, try the Cagliari, a sandwich based on a Sardinian
tuna and tomato recipe. Travel to the Lower Ground Floor for your
very own culinary tour of old Italy.
