 Il duce (er la dolce) cafe.

 Or, if quality alone, rather than somewhere to eat, is the criterion,
 Patisserie Julien in the strip, or Moio's Italian Bakery in Monroeville.

 Or, if squirel hill is the criterion... well, one could do worse than
 hot caramel apple pie a la mode eat and park. It's certainly cheaper and
 better than Gullifty desserts.

 RE:Dessert anyone?  I will share my secrets with all of you dessert lovers
 out there.  Since I am a native Pittsburgher, I know all of the haunts for
 good baked goods.  Don't serve me dessert in a fancy restaurant after a
 gourmet meal.  Let me buy it in a store  and make a ritual out of
 consuming it, complete with delicious freshly ground Coffee, made in a
 chemex.  U>S>A Gourmet bakery has the most delicious cinnamon rolls.  they
 also come in an orange flavor , too.  These are round pastries with a
 buttery croissant type of dough.  They are slathered with a thick
 icing-vanilla for the cinnamon rolls and orange for the orange rolls.
 Juliens has  wonderful French pastries but they are a little expensive.
 Now Kaufmann's department  store downtown has great baked goods.  My
 favorite  is the cannoli.  I have not had better ones than these, even in
 Little Italy.  Knells in Mount Washington make a  scrumptious Lady Lock;.
 the cream filling is out  of this world.  The Manor bakery in
 Greentree/Mount Lebanon has a mocha bar cake which is only $5.99 and would
 be good to serve at a dinner.  I forgot to mention the chocolate truffles
 that U.S.A. Gourmet makes.  These are  tasty and reasonably priced
 considering that they are hand made.  The best truffles that I have ever
 truly had are sold by Betsy Ann candy in the North Hills.  This is
 chocolate candy to die for.  But candies are another subject.  I could go
 on about sweets forever.  Is there anyone out there who likes sweets as
 much as I do?   Louise Gray

 Try Cafe Azure on North Craig street.  Everything is very rich, but is
 wonderful.  Also, try the expresso cake at Papa J's cafe in Oakland or
 Mt Lebanon.  It is chocolate to die for.
