| I don't know if my husband loved this room, but my daughter and I did! |
 |
| Cronuts are even making it here! But I didn't have enough room to try everything while we we here! I did carry home two sweets that I can find in Montreal occasionally: the delicious gianduja in a gold Caffarel wrapping and mints by Leone in lovely flavours - cinnamon, liquorice (anice), violet (violette), field berries (frutti di bosco), raspberry (lampone) and even Spritz (a Venetian classic made with Aperol)! And beyond that is some great chocolate, so keep scrolling! |

 |
| My family refused to go into another church, which is a shame, since this is the one that houses the shroud of Turin (St John the Baptist's cathedral) |
 |
| Host of 2006 Olympics, home of the shroud of Turin (I feel dumb that I didn't know Turin was in Italy!), Juventus soccer club, birthplace of Victor Emmanuel II, the first King of united Italy after being King of Sardinia, Venti and Caffarel chocolate, and Lavazza espresso. |
