Bar Lavazza - Turin

Washed up perhaps anchored to the successes of the less convincing past of other proposals for a fast lunch, with an appointment shortly after in the center, I choose to stop at the washbasin whispered the environment from the outside seems of value, making immediately weigh its history. I have just entered instead I remain quite confused, many banners that advertise the proposal of café just entered, but the menus a little hidden on the right (that in fact I will see only the ocita) part of the restaurant. immediately courteous, attentive and professional service just sitting at the table I understand that some are reserved to the kitchen others to the appetizers bar but without being well distinguished creating further confusion I am satisfied with an appetizer, for a preparation to the celery, and in the meantime known that the first room is a self-celebration of the brand, but which borders with a kind of aggressive advertising as reproposing old commercial advertising everywhere. in the second room, always advertising in tapestry the walls but here at least it is on the historical ones, which represent the bees of the brand and their artefacts. prices much higher than the average even if you do not break from the menu the motivation to this increase. the line I took was too salty, a generous portion but did not particularly hear the flavors of the chef's dressings (trite of capers) which should improve the quality of meat. Cute bread basket with salty croissants, but old and dry bread for the rest, which well accompanies the rucola that unnecessarily abounds in this dish (I feel that when I propose a dish must always be presented in the perspective that each ingredient must be consumed). at the bar where to take the coffee (we are not at home washed) has had the account turns out more salty than the bar (water 3 and covered 2) bring a lunch with starter to 19 euros, coffee 1 euro. remaining on the latter, as you can present a coffee that should be the local business card, to be so encased. machine not on arm, which inevitably burns a little the mill, and moreover not receiving from the staff some indication on alternative roasting, on the dishes that make up the first and second I can not expose myself and perhaps are found more in the ropes of that brigade, but both the confused setting, both the prices not online or with the competition or with the place do not make me tend to a return. I personally didn't find it on the level to better represent the brand.

Update. What happens to the historic house of lavazza san tommaso 10?! revolutions are definitely important sometimes, in other circumstances they leave you a very bitter goto. Perfect! we are in the center of torino in the historical center of washing a few steps from my activity of via barbaroux 12 / f and I frequent this bar every day, which in truth is not a simple bar here you can breathe a slightly enlarged family flavor. here I spend every day my breaks and are always pampered by aromas, flavors and smiles that fill your heart. In recent years I have witnessed some changes that have made the quality of coffee deserve all the 5 stars I have available. a special thanks goes to elena, claudia and stefania, these people make my time much more precious.

The company's first historical headquarters is washed, now the modernly decorated room, in addition to the usual breakfast service of excellent level, offers a refreshment service for lunch and dinner with excellent dishes. for lunch it is recommended to book.

In this place passes the history of Italy and the history of the torino. here you sip the best coffee in the city that you can choose from a wide choice of blends. frequented by a gourmet audience away from more screaming places. and who thinks it is

Bar of superior category, very nice environment. coffee from the guaranteed goto, not rancid or burned as too often you feel. source: I always drink it without sugar.
