I don't like Tolkein, it's a little bit QUESTY
I don't like politics, they make me dePRESSEDY
I like the East Coast but I really love the WESTY
I don't like boys but girls are the BESTY
Tall girls from Prague, Sofia and BUCURESTI
I like Pam Anderson and she's rather BREASTY
Speaking of which, a porn star is my BESTIE
I sometimes like boys when my bottom feels EMPTY
I like my friend Zain cause he's so ZESTY
I like to be Louder but I don't like ESTEE
I don't like cops cause they try to ARREST ME
The older server here gets a little bit TESTY
Maybe cuz in winter I go in here in my VESTY
I like Colgate but I'm not a fan of CRESTY
And girls like me the way they liked Elvis PRESLEY
I don't like Coke and I don't like PEPSI
I like Marisa but not Joe PESCI
I like bakeries but they make me feel HEFTY
I like artists but they can be a bit SKETCHY
I wish I had that guy's girl, what's his name? JESSIE
I once got molested by a man named WESLEY*
I love Barcelona and Suarez and MESSI
And will a dozen cannolis make my tummy look SEXY?
I like Italian stuff, from cars to CONFETTI
Lasagne too, pizza, and SPAGHETTI
If Italian girls don't like me, it's cause they never MET ME
Some of these don't rhyme cause I'm a little bit RUSTY
No matter, let's go and get pastry from PRESTI
WHAT
If your server is rude, just Presti button and a new one will appear!
OK that's not true, but the pastries are so good, you won't care.
I have to thank Robert in Portland for sending me to this beautiful Bakery. I got all kinds of really awesome pastries and treats, and even though they were sold out of a lot of stuff I very much enjoyed all of it. Some of the servers are not as friendly as others, but my one was really lovely.
Biscotti is still biscotti (I've never been impressed), but the cookie and the cannoli were excellent. I got a few extras for the cookie lovers and cannoli lovers back in Buffalo, and they absolutely loved them. I'm not sure if the Cannoli is as good as Brooklyn, but it's definitely in the same ball park (ew I just used a Baseball metaphor ew ew ew) which is a massive compliment, but not as massive as my...
Cheesecake. Cheesecake is pricey and wasn't amazing, but that's because the basic, which they're not as famous for, is all they had. Perhaps the Italian and chocolate versions will be better.
I noticed Presti's has lots of good-looking customers (hi Italian girls) and a pretty strange format. You take a number and then wait (for what seems like decades) to be served. True Italian style. Mamma mia.
It's in the beautiful old Little Italy neighborhood of East Cleveland, and in many ways is the heart of the neighborhood. There's a reason it's always so busy and if you love bakeries you should try this for yourself.
Usually I'd avoid gorging on such delights (yes I'm still talking about Italian desserts... the pastry kind), but when you look at who we have as the Prestient of the USA, I think I can be forgiven for a little binging.
