Ferrara in Little Italy

Note: there's also a small booth near Columbus Circle that has coffee and cannolis. Definitely good for those cold winter days where you need something sweet and hot!

Drinks
*Cafe Latte
-the reason I love this is because their espresso is amazing. I got a small bottle of the Instant Espresso for home and even liked it.

*Glass of Churchill's Port
-why nobody ever introduced me to this sweet delicious drink is beyond me. Smells and tastes good, perfect with the sweets.


Sweets
*Chocolate Dipped Cannoli: Chocolate dipped crispy tube, with ricotta cream & chocolate chips
-if you go to Ferrara and don't order their cannoli, I really don't know what to say. Always a favorite of mine even if I do like trying new things some days too.

*Lobster Tail: Crisp flaky pastry filled with Bavarian cream.
-I can eat the cream in this and a cannoli every day and be perfectly happy.

*White Chocolate Raspberry Ribbon: Chocolate raspberry cream filling, chocolate cake with white chocolate ribbon curls.
- a bit on the rich side, but still very good.

*Tiramisu: Portion is meant to be shared. love it!

Gelato/Sorbet
*Hazelnut - incredibly nutty and delicious
*Guava - sweet and a little tart
*Manga - tastes just like real mango
