2. Peach cobbler. This summertime dessert staple makes an appearance on the menu at Il Giallo Osteria & Bar in Sandy Springs. Pastry chef Libby Muldawer created the dish, called Crostata de Pesca, which is a Southern peach cobber served warm, with vanilla gelato. Classic, simple and oh so gooey and good.
