"Ich war heute zum ersten Mal in der Gelateria Zanella und war beeindruckt von der Qualität der Bruschetta. Als ich sie bestellte, dachte ich, es käme eine kleine Bruschetta – so wie man sie als Vorspeise in italienischen Restaurants bekommt. Doch nach einem sehr freundlichen Gespräch mit dem Kellner verstand ich, dass das Bruschetta-Konzept in diesem Bistro eine vollwertige Mahlzeit ist! Ich bestellte die Variante mit Garnelen und merkte sofort, dass die Zutaten absolut frisch sind. Hier mein Tipp: Ein schönes Glas Weißwein „Lugana“, das mir vom Kellner empfohlen wurde, passt perfekt zur Bruschetta Max! Ich kann nur sagen: Ich komme wieder !!!!"

"Yesterday we visited again and had a lovely time at the ice cream parlor "Zanella." The cakes and coffee were delicious. They only accept cash. The restrooms were clean, but there was no hand soap, and there was a damp paper towel next to the sink for drying hands. That wasn't very pleasant."
