Bomberino's Too Good to Go surprise bag exceeded value, contained a manageable quantity, and presented a nice alternative to the usual French pastries. It featured a plain cornetto (I will always prefer croissants (esp. Julien's), but it was nice to try), a Sfogliatella (a new to me signifier that means small, thin leaf/layer), and two Italian filled donuts-- a Bombolone alla Nutella and one with fruit preserves, possibly raspberry. All pastries were fresh, and I was happy to liberate them. As the Too Good to Go pickup time is near the store's closing time, I didn't want to order an elaborate espresso drink, so I just tried an iced coffee (watery, bitter), which I would skip next time and instead try the Ciao Bomber signature drink--a cortado with Nutella or pistachio cream. I also plan to return for the transformation of the coffee shop into a wine bar, L'aperitivo da Bomberino. Too Good to Go has been a fun way to try new places that wouldn't have been on my radar otherwise.
