AI summary of what 1 dish mentions say about the food
Reviewers rave about Dattilo’s cannolo, praising its perfectly crisp shell and luscious filling. The overall vibe is one of refined, soulful Italian comfort.
“The shell seems to have a secret recipe, and the cannoli are filled on the spot so the ricotta doesn't soften the shell. The shell is fried, inside there should be wheat, Marsala, and the ricotta is normally sifted with a kind of sieve. It's not too sweet at all — it's just right. It's extremely crunchy. The chocolate seems really sparse, so it's not too much. The sheep's ricotta, even though it's objectively a strong ricotta, remains very delicate. If I have to find a tiny flaw, I would have liked the ricotta to be colder in temperature. But they say this is the best cannolo in Sicily, and in terms of balance it's extremely balanced, the shell is extreme. I think it's fried in lard because the frying is so top. For me, it's the best cannolo of my life — the best cannolo in the world.”
