Address

Galleria Vittorio Emanuele II, upstairs above Prada

A Milanese pastry house founded in 1824, now owned by Prada. The Galleria branch sits upstairs above the Prada store; from the window seats of the pistachio-green salon you look down on crowds under the glass roof. Glossy cakes, cookies and marrons glacés fill the counters, and at Christmas the panettone boxes stack up like towers. Expensive, but you're paying for the room.
