Since sfogiatelle is my absolute favorpastry, when I passed this pastry shop named La Sfogiatella,…read moreI had to stop in even though I had already eaten a sfogiatelle earlie that day! But hey, I'm in Italy and I can't get sfogiatelle in Portland, Oregon. Plus, the calories don't count when traveling! A sfogiatelle is made from laminated pastry cut into coin shapes, several coins layered on top of each other which creates a flaky shell. A mixture of ricotta slightly sweetened with powdered sugar and citron, typically orange, is paced on top and the coin is then folded over to resemble a clam shell. It's then baked and the shell is both buttery and super crispy while the ricotta is now slightly firm from baking. It's not too sweet which is exactly why I love them. Sfogiatelle originated by a nun in Naples and has become a symbol of Naples and they are found in abundance all over Southern Italy. Don't confuse a sfogiatelle with the American Lobster tail. While the outer shell is similar, the lobster tail has a larger shell and a dollop of Chou pastry is placed in the center before baking to puff up the core. Then after the shell is baked, pastry cream, not ricotta, is piped in. It's good, but it is not a sfogiatelle! They were created in the U.S. when Italian Americans could not acquire ricotta, so they improvised. Coming from an Italian family, my grandparents always brought a box of sf and cannoli for every holiday or special occasion. And of course we went to the bakery to get them even if it was not a holiday! So being in Southern Italy where my grandparents on both sides were born and lived, eating sfogiatelle and other foods from my childhood felt like they were still here with me as I visited the cities they were from. And the sfogiatelle from La Sfogiatella was superb in every way!

Born prior to the age of Instagram, though a decorative layout and clever branding including a "selfie wall" have since been added, Cuori di Sfogliatella's story begins in the 1990s on Corso Novara near Naples Central Station, the brand since expanding to include multiple outlets such as the one on popular Via Toledo. Built narrow, a counter with three servers plus a Barista occupying 2/3 the space with patrons unable to stand two abreast from front to a seating area in back, it is largely from hanging menus that decisions are made, prices approximately 2x that of Attanasio or Carraturo still a bargain considering the location. Luring in locals and tourists alike, Soft-serve topping layered Cones a fairly new development guaranteed to make the #gram, it is fortunate that the topped-to-order base stands up well lightly-sweetened Gelato, while more traditional looking Sfogliatelle are also crisp and well-filled in the Riccia style. Uncertain of baker Antonio Ferrieri's original intention, but happy to see tradition married to modernity without sacrificing texture, it is perhaps expected that Cuori's Sfogliatelle pack more Sugar than most, but from Almond to Pistachio and Pear the flavors are mostly natural with texture not far from the original.

Praise for their delicious melon sorbet made with real melon!…read more After lunch I was craving a little something sweet and Collina looked swarming with customers on a warm spring afternoon, so I peeked in. The cafe is very small, with a counter inside the left entrance for gelato and sorbetto, a larger counter and display case of pastries along the wall inside the right entrance. Seems to be a handful of seats upstairs accessible by a narrow staircase though they looked to be cordoned off that moment. Gelato prices ranged from €3 for a small, single flavor to €5 for medium, €8 for large, €12 for maxi which I'm not quite sure how many scoops that was. The prices were the most reasonable that I saw along the Amalfi Coast in a few towns. After checking out the flavor selection I decided to go with a light sorbetto in melon and it was yummy! It tasted like if really ripe cantaloupe were made into a super smooth smoothie lol. They carried the popular sorbetto al limone (lemon sorbet in a lemon) for €10 too, though in general I heard mixed reviews about this item being overpriced. They offer a bunch of lunch-suitable menu items like simple paninis, pasta, salads and burgers; also some cocktails for €12-13-including an enticing Positano Spritz concocted of prosecco, limoncello, soda, fresh lemon zest. Pastries looked good too though the weather was a little warm for more sweets--their tiramisu cups, cookies, mini tarts and eclairs all looked like solid choices if you're in the mood.
