On Tiramisu Day, discover 10 restaurants to taste the Italian sweet in SP

One of the most traditional sweets in Italian cuisine, tiramisu has a date dedicated just to it. This Tuesday, March 21, International Tiramisu Day is celebrated. The date was created in 2017.

The dessert combines, in layers, champagne biscuit soaked in coffee, mascarpone cream – a type of creamy cow cheese – and cocoa powder, which results in a mixture of bitter and sweet.

This is the basis of the classic recipe, but each restaurant makes its own version — adding, for example, a touch of marsala wine.
