And because it was a short one-block walk away...
Amuse bouche of poached cherry and cherry brandy ice cream, which had pretty much melted into ice cream soup by the time this shot was taken.
Droplets of earthy buckwheat honey encircled slightly tart, firm cape gooseberries, creamy sweet corn ice cream, and delicate sponge cake. One top sat the real treat: the whole, sugar-coated, beautifully ripened fruit.
Our petit four trio - ordinary dark chocolate cake, ordinary toasted coconut marshmallow, and addicting shortbread cookie that deserves more focus than its fellow components in the photo below.
Our enjoyment of our delicate and memorable "entree" that almost justified the twenty-dollar price tag trumped our disappointment with our lackluster first and third courses. Chika herself was adorable and certainly adds to the appeal of this cozy dessert bar.
