Court Pastry Shop

The display cases of filled pastries were exceedingly, even sinfully tempting, but on this visit I stepped back outside to the window that serves housemade ices and spumoni. The electric-green pistachio and off-white custard flavors seemed to be doing the best business; the lemon ice (medium, but laid on very generously; $1.75) turned out quite well, too.
