visit Venchi flagship store @ milan....

the flagship store of the famous Piedmont company established in 1878... it produces and sells over 250 products called Gli Originali (historical products made since the company was established), I Classici (historical, typical products from Piedmont), I Prestige (sophisticated developments of historical recipes), I Cuor di Cacao (Pure dark chocolate), I Sugar Free (Special line sweetened with maltitol)...the store was really small, but you get to see the most variety of venchi product here...pride of the company are the nougatine (pralines of caramelised hazelnuts and dark chocolate) a specialty still in production. i found chocolate caviar, one of the recent product line from venchi. the staff said you can eat this with cognac or coffee....i didn't get a chance to taste choco caviar, but got one from the store....can't wait to taste this when i get home in sf......

address: via mengoni near piazza duomo, milan
