What goes with a nice cup of tea?
A girelle from Stephen Lanzalotta’s tiny bakery inside Micucci’s. If you’re already a fan of Stephen’s pizza (and who isn’t) then you know whatever comes out of his oven is sure to be delizioso. This light, puffy pinwheel of a pastry is no exception.
It’s crispy, chewy and airy all at once with a hint of orange, almonds and cinnamon. Not too sweet, but is sprinkled with powdered sugar. So be sure to wipe your mouth, or everyone will know you indulged.
 
Girelle, $2.99

Micucci’s
45 India Street
Portland
775-1854
