The menu had this as Skillet Brownie but on the bill it was called Cowboy Brownie; either way, it's an homage to the Wild West by the Italian couple who own this western themed Italian restaurant. This baked to order brownie in a cast iron skillet is the best I've ever had. It's crispy on the outside, still moist on the inside, and you can get it with a dollop of vanilla gelato ice cream. The contrast of the cold ice cream and the warm brownie is luxurious. The brownie is not too sweet, a little salty, and very chocolatey. It's the owner's mother's recipe that was perfected at the restaurant. This restaurant is historic. According to the hostess, my sister and I enjoyed our dessert in the Al Capone room. He was here in the 1930s and to be safe he apparently had escape tunnels constructed from what was then known as the Casino. “If only the walls could talk,” said the hostess.
