My friend and I love trying desserts from different restaurants. Sometimes we go just for the dessert, and other times, we make ourselves feel less guilty by ordering an entree. And splitting it. And then getting two desserts.
But it's not always easy to figure out from the menu description of the dessert whether it's going to be as we expect it. Especially for dessert: the descriptions usually sound really appetizing, using words like "warm" "drizzly" "topped with..." and all that. If there isn't a picture of the dessert on the menu, that just makes things more interesting.
We had the Forbidden Broadway Sundae at Serendipity, and that was amazing. The only problem was that we couldn't finish it because there was so much.
And the last dessert we tried was at Max Brenner. It was supposed to be an ice cream sundae/ sandwich, but ended up looking like a math project we butchered (it was served on a graph paper cutting board along with a fork and knife). It was just ice cream between two hard chocolate cookies. Not an easy thing to eat. But there were other things on the menu that look really good, so we're still going to come back :)
