The Marzo bakery and cafeteria is one of those places where, once you’ve entered, you never want to leave! The bread shop opened first in Venaus, where there is still a shop and bakery that turns out almost all the goods sold, sweet and savory. The main premises in Susa consist of an elegant cafeteria where you can enjoy prime-quality Slow Food Presidium coffee Ethiopia or sit outside at one of the tables on the busy pedestrian precinct that runs through the town center for a snack, one of the many splendid filled focaccias, say, or a sandwich made with the fantastic bread from the shop. The bread, the focaccias and the grissini are produced with flour made with a dozen different varieties of the heirloom grain cultivated in the valley. The dry pastries, soft croissants, Venaus focaccia (a delicious take on the Susa version) and the torcetti biscuits all have beautifully balanced flavor. The two shops are open from Monday to Saturday.
