My husband and I will be visiting next week and would like to know if anyone has any recommendations for good cannoli. We're looking for an Italian bakery with a wide variety.

Thanks!

Caffe Roma in "little Italy" is an old fashioned place with a lot of charm, except maybe the employees. It was a hot day the last time I went and they have no a/c so that might have been the reason for curtness.

I had a very good cannoli there. The have many Italian cookies you an buy by the pound. My favorites are the pignoli cookies (pinon nuts). It's a step back in time, and except for my last vacation visit, a nice place to sit and relax with a cappucino and pastry.

Whoops! Here is the address, it's right on the corner.

how do i hook up my bluetooth? i have new fone and cant get it.

I'm amazed.

No one has mentioned Veniero's? 342 East 11th Street

Or Ferrara's on Grand St?

DiRoberti's on first between 10th and 11th (or was it 9th and 10th) for not only the best cannoli and cappucino on the lower east side, but also for the kindest crew and caretakers - once when I lived on east thirteenth street (1980-ish), my toilet was broken for some days in a row(!) and the folks in there never once gave me grief about my going in there repeatedly over the course of several days in a row to take care of business even when I couldn't afford to buy anything. Years later (late eighties), when living up in hell's kitchen, my sweetheart edgardo and I would go there for cappucino ~ I still recall the little steps down at the entrance and the booths and the two big doors in the back, the amazing creations up front...
