Gofreria Piemonteisa
About
Gofreria Piemonteisa – the first dedicated gaufre (french‑style waffle) shop in Italy, opened in 2005 in the heart of Turin. Using a traditional, egg‑ and milk‑free batter and the freshest whole‑grain flour ground in an on‑site stone mill, the shop creates light, crispy gaufre that can be sweet or savory. Visitors are treated to a glimpse of Piedmont’s culinary heritage: from the same‑day milled flour to the historic recipes that have evolved from the Alpine valleys to the city streets. The whimsical, minimalist décor and open kitchen give a relaxed, family‑friendly atmosphere, while the menu’s variety encourages exploration of classic flavors and modern twists. A quick stop at Gofreria Piemonteisa offers an authentic taste of Turin’s street‑food revival, blending tradition with contemporary flair.
