Panificio Lievito madre — Restaurant in Noto

I’m a former San Franciscan. I’ve missed sourdough bread since I’ve moved to Noto but not anymore. There are a lot of good things to try here but their Tipo 2 loaf is the closest thing to a crunchy crust sour loaf that I’ve found. Eat it warm with some French salted butter. Heaven! Today I got my first Panettone (classic) for Xmas. Chef’s kiss!!!!!! Better than Cafe Sicilia and not as pricey either. You have to pre-order them but worth the wait...

High quality bakery. Mastery, quality and competence of the professionals behind the scenes enhanced with grace, professionalism and friendliness behind the counter. You can buy traditional local breads of various types. Excellent pizzas and focaccia. Delicious sweet croissants for breakfast. The best bakery in Noto. Congratulations to...

Can only recommend this place. Small bakery, friendly English speaking people, great products (great bread, but also other tasty products like croissants, pizzas, local food...).

One big plus: it is definitely not crowded by tourists as they visit the shops/restaurants next to the cathedral and never make it...
