Let them eat cake!

Marie Antoinette would have been proud!
This old world cake shop holds shelves groaning under the weight of numerous pastries, cookies and cakes. Standouts are the Italian Cannoli--a crispy fried pastry shaped in a tube and traditionally filled with sweetened ricotta cheese but are equally good filled with yellow custard and half-dipped in chocolate--and the Melting Moments which are 2 buttery shortbread cookies sandwiched together with a smooth vanilla filling. Yummmmy!
