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…Los Angeles, CA

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.

There is hope for dessert lovers at the new CITIFIELD!!

sdc10270sdc10267

Welcome to Citifield everyone!  I went to my first game the other night and was blown away!  It is gorgeous and it even has some good looking treats for that 7th inning stretch craving!  In the “Market”  located on the 2nd level, I think, they have Mets Black and White cookies, cupcakes and puddings!  They even have little sugar Mets symbols on top!  If you don’t mind standing in line, the Shake Shack is open and looking just as good as the Manhattan outposts!  I was worried that the quality wouldn’t be there, but everything I saw was a HOME RUN!   xoxo Blondie
