Perfect Pastries & Perfect Days:  A Visit to Bar Pasticceria di Chiusso Pierino and then the Beach at Alberoni

9/15/2014

Comments

 
Yes, I'm going to call today "perfect" even if doing so at this hour means that I should probably not go out again.  I'll share photos of my wonderful day in the Lido, but first:  
Picture
Bar Pasticceria di Chiusso Pierino, a perfect place in which to begin and end a perfect day and the place that is taking the top spot in our Bakeries & Pastry Shops section.   As the name implies, it's a bar and a pastry shop.  But it's more!  It is one of the best pasticceria in Venice no doubt.  Neighbors argue over which brioche to buy on Sunday morning, not whether to go somewhere else.  And, evening spritz are served with house-made croutons rather than potato chips.  What can I say about the food there?  Well, my rule is to go places twice before making up my mind about putting them in the guide.  But I've been here five times in the past two days and I'm already subconsciously trying to invent a route from San Francesco Della Vigna to Rialto that will take me past there this evening.  A Venetian will recognize that that is a route that makes no sense whatsoever, but this place might actually be that good!

So, I started my perfect day at Bar Pasticceria di Chiusso Pierino with a coffee and an apricot brioche.  Then I went, in the opposite direction of everyone else, out to the Lido for my day in the sun.  I had planned to just take a quick swim and come back to town… But, this is Venice and I am me.  So, I continued in the opposite direction of everyone else and paid a visit to the site of my future home at Alberoni instead.
