Bomboloni are the most mouth wateringly, delicious, sugary rounds of heaven. Seriously. They are eaten for breakfast, snack (merenda) or dessert (dolce) in Italy and I am so happy to call this country my new home because of that!

These are small ones, "piccolo" ones full of chocolate and the other full of squidgy custard. Not custard like in the UK, it's thicker and there is a delicately light lemon flavour. I can't work out if the lemon flavour is from the drippingly tasty filling or the airy pastry.

But I will continue to research this.

It may take many, many bites of bomboloni's before we know for sure.

I'll keep you posted.

Nightclub impresario Frank Sennes purchased the famed Ciro's nightclub at an auction after the venue had been foreclosed.

He reopened it as Le Crazy Horse, but this iteration did not last long.

Today the same venue is known as The Comedy Store.
