In a Pickle

Why pickleball is the feel-good game craze we all need right now.

Stop for a macchiato at Caffè Giacosa, a local favorite now redone by fashion designer Roberto Cavalli (whose shop is just next door). We love the leopard-print chairs and floors and faux sharkskin walls. At 10R Via della Spada; 39-055-277-6328.
