The 9 cookies you'll find in the Entertainment Cookie Collection are: Chocolate Pirouettes, Brussels, Lidos, Genevas, Lisbons, Bordeaux, Milanos, Chessmen, and Orleans. I'm not sure where the tradition of naming some of their cookies after cities started but it's rather distinctive.

This collection of European-style cookies is my favorite of the Pepperidge Farm line. I like the variety and the mix between chocolate and non-chocolate cookies. The distinguishing feature in many of the cookies is the rich chocolate used though.
My favorite cookie in the collection is the Bordeaux, a crisp, textured cookie that melts in your mouth. But really all the cookies are pretty good. The Chocolate Pirouette is a rolled crepe cookie flecked with chocolate. The Brussels is a very crispy, almost fried tasting cookie with a layer of chocolate. The Lido is easily confused with a Tahitian (coconut cookie) but doesn't have any coconut; it's a denser slightly softer cookie. The Geneva is a pecan cookie with chocolate and pecans on one side. The Lisbon is like a chocolate chip cookie dipped in chocolate. The Milano is a classic with cookie biscuit with a layer of dark chocolate in between. Chessman are you typical butter cookies. And Orleans are very similar to Milanos but circular and thinner.
