Merisù: Tiramisù Becomes an Experience in the Heart of Trastevere

Rome is a city to be discovered through monuments, squares, alleys and flavours. Among the most unique food experiences in the historic centre, there is one that starts from one of Italy's most beloved desserts: tiramisù.

In the heart of Trastevere, Merisù has transformed tiramisù into something different from a simple dessert. It has turned it into an experience to watch, live and remember.

A format dedicated to tiramisù

Merisù was born in Rome, at Via di San Francesco a Ripa 29, with a clear idea: to create a place entirely dedicated to tiramisù.

Not a dessert served at the end of a meal, but the absolute protagonist of the experience.

From this vision comes the Tiramishow®, the format that lets guests watch their tiramisù being prepared live, right before their eyes.

The Tiramishow®: tiramisù prepared in front of guests

Traditionally, tiramisù is prepared in advance and served ready.

At Merisù, instead, the preparation becomes an integral part of the experience.

Through the Tiramishow®, cream, coffee, savoiardi and cocoa take shape on the spot, step by step. The customer does not just receive a dessert, but watches its creation.

This is the distinctive feature of the format: transforming one of the most iconic desserts of the Italian tradition into a visual, engaging and memorable moment.

The central role of coffee

In tiramisù, coffee is one of the fundamental ingredients, but it is often less talked about than the cream or cocoa.

For Merisù, however, it is an essential part of the product's identity.

The coffee used in the preparation is made with a traditional moka, a method that recalls Italian coffee culture and achieves a balanced aromatic profile.

The beans come from an artisanal and socially responsible supply chain, with hand picking and selection.
