Pasticceria Grammatico
Pasticceria Grammatico Review
Fans of Sicilian sweets make a beeline for this place, run by Maria Grammatico, a former nun who gained international fame with Bitter Almonds, her life story cowritten with Mary Taylor Simeti. Her almond-paste creations are works of art, molded into striking shapes, including dolls and animals. There are a few tables and a tiny balcony with wonderful views.
