Description:
This might seem an odd one to add, but here's the thing: Falconara Mma is the railway station where the line splits for various places - Rome, Venice, Bari... And while you're waiting for your connection, where better to sit than in the 50s gloom and general Italian dodginess of Cafe Bedetti opposite the station?
In its heyday, the local hoods and ladies of transitory years and repute would command the back, while the front was devoted to reasonable coffee and... wait for it... world gold medal winning nougat and ice-cream. Really. Year after year they won the prize for 'World's best Torrone'. And I want to testify to the authenticity of that award. Truly a slice of bygone Italy, all while waiting for your train.
