After a nice Italian lunch in Little Italy, I decided it was time to grab a cappuccino and a couple of pastries. I remembered walking past this place so my friend and I made our way there before heading back to our hotel.
Upon entering, we smelled bread and desserts, which usually happens in a bakery. The cute little lady behind the counter was helping a couple and was very friendly when she got to us. As the daughter of Italian immigrants myself, I chatted with her a few minutes in Italian and English as she made my cappuccino. She was very charming and I congratulated her on being in Canada for 50 years.
Along with the cappuccino I ordered some kind of almond/fruit cake and a vanilla icing-topped custard cake (sorry I don't know the formal names). I did notice she made many of the more traditional pastries like babas, cannolis, lobster tails, napoleons, and eclairs.
This is a cute little shop, with enough seating for a few people so stop in and grab a pastry and coffee; the cute little lady will take care of you.
