Laporta's in Alexandria has a very good Tiramisu.  It is the closest we've
had here to the fabulous stuff in Italy.  Laporta's is on 1600 Duke Street,
not in Old Town.  They also have a Monday night special for 2 people:
Pasta and a bottle of wine for $19.99.  Of course, add your salad
and Tiramisu and you'll double that!  The meal we had there was
excellent, and I'd highly recommend it.

Interestingly, the best Tiramisu we had in Italy was at a place called
"The Golden Sausage".  I forget what it was in Italian, but we didn't
think it sounded very good.  It was up in the mountains and was very
German looking, and turned out to be excellent.
