I Dolci Fatti in Casa
Tiramisu’ “Patricia Brooks” – The other memorable dish that evening was a tiramisù that astonished me. I thought I’d seen all the permutations that a chef could bring to this by-now clichéd dessert. But Quartina’s version was a light, cake-shaped creation that melted in the mouth, sending delicate spasms of mascarpone cheese, amaretto and espresso to the palate. (NY Times 11/14/2014)
