Patisserie Prestige di Donati Davide

patisserie prestige di donati davide takes its pastry side seriously, and that matters more than you might expect in a town like san lazzaro di savena. most places treat the food as an afterthought to the coffee. here, the two feel like they were planned together. you'll find it on via donini, a quiet stretch that doesn't get a lot of foot traffic from people passing through, which means the people who show up are mostly people who came specifically. that kind of place tends to hold its standards because the crowd knows the difference. the regulars here are vocal about it, and consistently so. worth timing your visit for the morning, when the pastry case is still full.
