Among the classic pastry shops, Pasticceria Emilia on Via Desenzano is known for brioche, maritozzi and pistachio croissants and closes on Mondays, and Giordano on Via Tommaso Salvini for cannoncini and panettone, with morning-only hours on Mondays and Saturdays. For focaccia, reviews point to El Murnè on the corner of Piazza Bacone, with its cherry-tomato version and arancini, and to Vailati on Via Vitruvio, which is open all day on Sundays as well. La Baloss on Via Lecco has vegan cakes.
