ReplyDeleteNot in the picture, was a whole family of three generations who sat at the table next to him. The grandfather spoke about his memories of his parents taking him to Derobertis as a kid.
A reporter from the Villager was jotting it all down.
Should also mention they are selling Derobertis paraphernalia, like capuccino mugs and spoons, trays and other things.
They also handed out some complimentary mini cupcakes around 3:30pm.

ReplyDeleteI passed by around 6pm in the rain without an umbrella just to mope by it closed in a fitting style but found it somehow still open with a few pastries left so I went in and managed to get one last bag of tarts and brownies to my melancholy delight.
