On Piazza Beccaria at the edge of Sant'Ambrogio, this jewel-box pasticceria has been making its near-mythic flourless chocolate cake, plus wild-fruit crostate and rice tarts, for over four decades, using Valrhona chocolate and market fruit. The vintage 1960s-European interior is tiny and serious about one thing: pastry. A pilgrimage worth the short walk.
