On the menu it’s called the “Sundae,” it should be called “Brilliance in a Bowl.”  Walk if not run to ABC Kitchen for dessert, their entire dessert menu perhaps.  I sat at the bar in disbelief!  How could I choose??  The “sundae”, chocolate cake with marshmallow frosting, vanilla chip ice cream cake, cobbler, pie……STOP IT RIGHT NOW!  HOW IS A GIRL SUPPOSED TO CHOOSE!

Extraordinary Desserts…San Diego

www.extraordinarydesserts.com

Well, I have been waiting to write this review for a while, but I had to taste just the right desserts at Extraordinary Desserts.  Of the many treats I tried, these two are my top picks.  Located right by my apartment here in San Diego, this adorable dessert shop is definitely a must.  They have a layout of stunning desserts unlike any I’ve seen!  What I love about the restaurant is that it’s a sit-down place and has award worthy desserts you can accompany with a glass of vino, coffee, or tea.  They are open late, which is key since most of us crave something sweet in the PM.  The two lovelies Read More »

Pizzeria Mozza is a new and trendy Mario Batali restaurant in Hollywood.  After finishing a fantastic dinner of gourmet pizzas, we couldn’t wait to see the dessert menu.  To be honest, we were just expecting some gelato and sorbet selections, therefore we were pleasantly surprised by the unique creations.  We chose the Strawberry Gelato Pie, the Caramel Copetta, and the Butterscotch Budino.

Have you ever been walking down a street in the middle of the afternoon and everyone that is passing by is blissfully enjoying gelato?  It’s either in a cup with a little spoon and they are smiling as they take their bite.  Or you see them licking their lips after sweeping up the melting sides of their waffle cone.  You’re thinking… Read More »

After a lovely salad and entree, my table and I decided to try some of this chic restaurant’s desserts.  They don’t have a tangible menu, but the waiter was ready and excited to tell me about their final courses (which is already a plus since the enthusiasm suggests they take pride in their desserts).  The group of us decided to get one of each of their Read More »
