Rocco Pastry Shop Restaurant Review:
You’ll most likely have to wait in line to get into Rocco’s, for its selection of almond pignoli cookies, potent babas au rhum, crunchy anise biscotti and freshly-piped cannoli is scrumptious. In addition to traditional Italian pastries, you’ll find mile-high napoleons. Villagers and shoppers like to sit at the tiny tables and enjoy cappuccinos with their treats.
