Bar Caso

A Piazzetta institution since the mid-20th century, a Caprese café where you can order a slice of torta caprese (the flourless almond-and-chocolate cake Carmine Di Fiore reportedly invented in his island workshop in 1920, when he forgot the flour) with an espresso.

One of four bars on the Piazzetta, and the one that carries the cake's legacy on the square. Stand at the counter, order torta caprese and espresso, watch the island wake up before the day-trippers arrive on the 9:30 ferry. By 11 it's a different place.
