A Sweet Tooth’s Guide to D.C. | Eater DC
"Built around nostalgia, Centrolina was conceived by chef Amy Brandwein more than a year ago with the goal of offering a cookie that reminded her of childhood; that impulse led her to the Italian rainbow cookie, a distinctive tri-colored dessert that evokes the Italian flag. Brandwein says she grew up going to her local bakery, Brenners in Arlington, Virginia, and that the "smells inside the store were always unbelievable," which fed her love for traditional bakery cookies and inspired the festive, Italian-centric cookie at Centrolina." - Eater Staff
