Of course, this blog would mean nothing if I didn’t mention the insanely decadent sundaes of Serendipity 3. Blondie and I just recently closed in our Broadway show, and we decided to go here for a sundae (or I should say “sundaes”) treat! Located on the UES next to Bloomingdale’s, this small “soda shop” restaurant provides the largest and best sundaes you can find. They are known for their famous “Frozen Hot Chocolate,” which you must have the first time you go. This place definitely doesn’t skimp in quantity so it’s not for wimps. Some of my favorite picks are the Frozen Peanut Butter Hot Chocolate, the Forbidden Broadway Sundae, and the Can’t Say No Sundae…
Frozen Hot Chocolate (or peanut butter)
Between a milkshake and a smoothie, it literally is hot chocolate…but frozen! It comes in a large, circular glass topped with whipped cream and chocolate crumbles! Richly refreshing!
Forbidden Broadway Sundae
Now this is a sundae! A huge hunk of their Chocolate Blackout cake is the main focus. Dense and creamy, it is accompanied by large scoops of vanilla ice cream and warm chocolate sauce drizzled on top, overflowing out of the dish. Of course, it’s finished off with a generous amount of whipped cream! Definitely for 2 people! This is serendipity’s most popular sundae (told to me by my waitor). If you are a chocolate lover, this ones for you!
Can’t Say No Sundae
All you peanut butter lovers watch out! Being a peanut butter freak myself, this one is right up my ally. The main focus is a piece of their Humble Pie: a creamy peanut butter pie with a gram cracker crust. Added on top is vanilla ice cream, bananas, melted peanut butter, fudge topping, and whipped cream!
Look for the warm peanut butter topping! Sometimes I just make my own sundae and top it with that because it’s so good! Sometimes the wait is horrendous, but what you experience is worth it all!
If you want some grub while you’re there, check out their foot long hot dog!
