Havent been here for years. I remember it as a good place to eat with great pastries and desserts. Yeah. Not anymore. Well at least the pastry/ dessert part.
So came on a Saturday early afternoon because I was going to a girlfriends for a baby shower. I offered to bring something. I've been to the nino d'aversa in aurora recently so thought I'd give this one a go.
That was a big expensive embarrassing mistake. I spent a lot of money on a box of treats.
To start with it should have been in two boxes but they do everything behind the counter and the lady jammed everything into one box. You don't see until they come around. So she save 50 cents on a 50 dollar order.
Got a box jammed packed with really stale cookies, hard cream puffs, curdled cream in those puffs - they smelled. They actually smelled like rotting milk. Cannolis that were different sizes and soft on the bottom where the grainy old cream soaked through. Well those that were actually filled. Some of them only were filled on the edges. Super.
We called to complain and was told that I was lying and that everything was made in the morning. I'm not sure what morning they were talking about. It wasn't Saturday morning. Maybe Monday or Tuesday judging by the staleness and curdling.
Won't be back.
