trani

just when i thought i'd seen everything a person could do with dessert, along comes trani. michael and i have long been fascinated by the storefront in the north end that seemed destined to never open. we knew it was a dessert type place and assumed that it was normal dessert type place. oh no.

so here's the deal. trani has shelves of baked goods and you pick something (michael got cupcakes.) then they take a gun of sorts and infuse the cupcake with the ice cream of your choice. the cupcakes get put into a little styrofoam container and it is put on a conveyor belt (still open) where it rolls under a hot fudge machine. no joke. can you even imagine? the even crazier part of this is that it was really really good.

this will certainly help my burgeoning post-partem butt...

so im trying to figure out where the name trani comes into play... perhaps an ordinary looking cupcake gets filled with cream and covered in chocolat...like a goth white man finding his inner/outer black woman?

yeah, my wife and I have seen the Trani sign for 2 years, and we were VERY curious when it opened.

Dear Jesus Crap, was it good! I'll be gaining 10 pounds this summer, no doubt. Thanks Trani!
