This historic café is where the tramezzino [an Italian finger sandwich] was invented in 1926. It remains one of the most charming spots in Turin. Their tramezzini are out of this world—the bread is light and fluffy, and each sandwich is served on a silver platter. My favorite is the one with mascarpone and truffle. And be sure to order the Bicerin, Turin’s most famous drink—a rich blend of espresso, hot chocolate, and cream served in layers that capture the essence of the city’s coffee culture. —Mimi Thorisson
