Gorgonzola & Pear Tart

Barbara prepared this delicious tart for our dinner last friday night. Hassan also had a funny story to tell about the search for the pastry. H&B have a little shop around the corner from their place that sells Mediterranean products. Barbara likes to shop there and challenge the shopkeeper as to what products he has. He often doesn't have what she is looking for and says he'll order it in for her. This particular time she was looking for an Italian type of pastry for the tart. The shopkeeper (slightly annoyed) pointed at this turkish filo pastry and said that the tart would taste better with this. He was right, the tart tasted great and looked beautiful...
