There's also a plain-looking, double-crusted version filled with vanilla custard.
But that was another evening, another dessert. This is Gian & Piero's almond pasticiotto (pahst-uh-Shawt approximates the bakers' pronunciation; $1.90), a palm-sized tart that layers almond paste on ricotta cheese on a thin seam of raspberry jam. The crown of slivered nuts are both a come-on and a promise.
