PrintSugar Rush: Patsy's Tiramisu
The pizza was awesome, as you can imagine. But the tiramisu, firm and solid, with cake in place of ladyfingers, and chocolate syrup squiggled over the surface, was a letdown. Especially after our waiter declared it "delicious" and told us it was made in-house. In a city with tiramisu on every other dessert menu, you'd think it'd be easier to come across a good, or even, great, version. But such is not the case.
So if you have any secret tiramisu haunts, do share in the comments. This serious eater wants to know!

Best tiramisu I've encountered as of late would be Tre in the Lower East Side followed by Destino in Midtown East. Others I've found pretty to not be particularly memorable.

I asked this question in SE:NY Talk awhile ago, and am still looking. I'm disappointed that good tiramisu is underepresented in the city. The "best" I can find so far is Veneiro's tiramisu cup, in which I can at least taste the brandy a little bit.

It is remarkable that tiramisu is so widespread and yet it's nearly impossible to find a good one. Not even that, but to find a simple traditional one! I have been searching for years and am still coming up empty handed.
I have one secret haunt which is not open to the general public, and that's mom's kitchen. At least I can get my fix a couple times a year, sorry folks.
