I love mango with coconut milk and rice. But I am italike in my refusal to pick a favorite. there is a thing at the bar up the street that's probably the most decadent. It's the Xango cheesecake. It's warm rich cheesecake in a fried pastry shell with whipped cream, chocolate and caramel sauce and fresh strawberries and blueberries.
Yeah... That went well.

Sadly, tomorrow they fly to Texas, where I gather rain is a less common occurence.
Actually they're predicting some nasty storms for this weekend in North Texas and that May will be full of bad weather. It does rain in certain seasons, and when it does it often causes major issues. It's probably different near the coast.

Passion fruit mousse with whipped cream and a sprig of mint in chocolate shells at the Cascades restaurant in Nashville.
This? Sounds divine. But I'm a sucker for fruity desserts, especially if they're combined with chocolate. I wish my mom still had her recipe for apple kuchen, which was basically apple crisp with a thick buttery cream topping. Yummmm.
I do like fondue desserts, with fruit and cheesecake and brownie bites to dip into the chocolate. I was at a chain fondue place (Something Pot, can't remember the first word) in Seattle, and we had both Turtle Fondue and Yin Yang Fondue, which was both dark and white chocolate in the same pot laid out in the yin-yang design.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, god, apple kuchen. I need to write home for our peach kuchen recipe. That was some good food.

Trust my rage
Kathy, you are thinking of the Melting Pot. They have restaurants in a few cities - lots of fun, I think.

Absolutely, Kathy. It was from some dinky Sainsbury's cookbook, and just great. I hope mother still has it.

That's it--I had Stock Pot on the brain, and I knew that wasn't right.
I did have a really good raspberry sorbet the one time I went to a top-notch steakhouse in the Chicago 'burbs. I still mean to take my dad to either Gibson's or Gene and Georgetti's downtown sometime this summer--it'll cost a bit, but we both loves the red meat, and I've been promising him for a year or so. This time, I'll have enough money (the other time, I only had $120, and it wasn't enough for the two of us--Dad had to make up the rest).
