Our short is now in Lombardia. Today's specialty is another dessert: Tortionata Lodigiana. This one, too, is an old dessert; one of the characteristics is that this dessert is not sliced: it's broken in pieces. For more info, take a look at the video and make sure you it!

Our short is now in Lombardia. Today's specialty is another Christmas dessert: Torrone. As said in the video, torrone can be in many ways: crunchy, soft, big, small... there also is a huge "argument" on who has the best or the original.

Our short is now in Lombardia. Today's specialties are a couple desserts: La Provvidenza and Veneziana. As said in the video, La Provvidenza is a modern version of Manzoni's favorite dessert: Carsenza; it has been created by the restaurant Don Lisander in Milan, and you can find it there. Veneziana can normally be found at Christmas or Easter, in its big size. It is readily available in the individual pieces all year! For more info, take a look at the video and make sure you try them!
