Meet my favorite bakery in Florence
Monday, October 17, 2016
Italy is known for carbs – pasta and pizza. Let’s not forget all the bread! In one of my getting lost in Florence episodes, I came across “Il Fornaio di Roga” and it instantly became my bakery of choice in the Italian city. I tried a few other places but this one takes the cake, pun intended.
This is a fairly short post but Il Fornaio di Roga deserves a spot in the blog. Give yourself time to explore Firenze and make your way to this bakery. Feel free to tag me when you do! I will be deliriously jealous but insanely happy for you.

My photos are few but all worth the calories. The baked goods are affordably priced for Italian standards but truly give a delicious punch. Variety is also one of their strengths and figuring out what to try can get challenging. I visited Il Fornaio di Roga on several occasions but one thing was constant – there was only one staff serving everyone. She was a one woman serving machine.
Mushroom Salami Pizza
I am not a mushroom fan but just look at that salami. I inhaled this in a matter of seconds, it was that good. Every morsel of this pizza was like a party in your mouth.

Cannoli
This was a bitter sweet find. I loved all the cannolis I tried from Il Fornaio di Roga. I would bring some home for me to snack on in my flat. The bitter part? It ruined cannolis for me. I haven’t found a place in Manila that creates cannoli quite like Il Fornaio di Roga’s.
