Banana-Blueberry Pie @ Impastato's

Banana-Blueberry pie @ Impastato's

At the end of a dinner at Impastato's, it's amazing that anyone can think of dessert. For that reason, the dessert menu here has never been a strong suit there. When anyone brings one up, however, it's almost always this one. It's like a cheesecake, but gooier. The banana and blueberry flavors are not only fresh and vivid, but really do go well together. I'll bet that this will be the most popular dessert at tonight's (or Sept. 14, 2016's) Eat Club dinner at Impastato's.

Impastato's. Metairie: 3400 16th St. 504-455-1545.
