al-alo: I'm so glad someone thought to mention Carmici's. We just got some there this weekend and they were divine. Really, really good. They make 'em fresh right before you, and they're comparibly inexpensive. Carmici's also offers Italian Classes: pay as you learn.
Manga!
Russ's Pastry is pretty good too, haven't had Dolci's yet but definitely will soon. Mike The Ice Man makes a good amateur version for his Theosophical meetings.
Hey, did u try carmichi's (sic?) on hertel? mmmm, thatsa good donunt. . .I mean connoli.
Your last post used obscene language and so deserved to be deleted. I don't know what your problem is with buffalorising, but clearly you have one. Your posts have nothing to do with the content of the stories, and you keep making up different profiles so you can making snide comments. Please find something better to do with your time and solve your problem somewhere else.....
Readers- Just a note: aMUSINGs' comment was in response to two comments that appeared here earlier, but have since been deleted for profanity. Let's hope that our new contributor, John, isn't scared off by one of our token cranks.
A lot of people have been recommending Russ's, and they are good. Unfortunately, when I got a cannoli from there I didn't get to eat it while it was at its freshest. It was still good, but I didn't sample it at its best so I can't be a fair judge of them.
I'd like to see what the Russ's fans think of Dolci's cannolis though.
I went by Carmichi's today. They did indeed fill it to order, but... well... really, it was one of the lesser cannolis I've had. Dolci by a country mile.
I gotta give props to Russ's for a good cannoli. They've been around forever and still make the best pastries. However, I'm not above trying other dessert shops foods (Perhaps this explains the weight issues I have!) Believe it or not, another great cannoli comes from the Walden Super Flea Market!!! There is a bakery inside on the left side (west end) of the market. Of course, I can't think of the name right now when I need it but it's something like Tombak's. They're from Rochester and come here on the weekends. The grandfather who sometimes works there is a Holocaust survivor--great eats and interesting history to boot!
Thank you all for you comments and love of cannoli. We also offer cherries for topping, and my personal favorite, which I get whenever we break a shell, is cherries, toasted almonds and powdered sugar. mmmmm... Come in and try that one.
