New York City: Advice for a Slightly Terrified Person

<< < (4/8) > >>

Alex C:
Come to think of it though, I virtually never order deserts. I'm not a big fan of sweet things anyway.

Lunchbox:
Desserts should always be had after a walk to help digest dinner and make more room for it. Dessert is the most important thing.

What precisely do you guys think an ice cream parlor is for?

Hopefully, yes. I mean, that's why they're a restaurant! I guess if you're getting stand food it makes more sense.

I guess we'll disagree on this one, but I don't expect great desserts from a steakhouse; I'm there for expertise in grilling meat. Or a sushi restaurant. Or a Mexican place. Or a lobster house etc.

hm, this may be part of why I prefer not to get dessert in restaurants. I'm not a big fan of sweet either, with a major exception for ice cream. Restaurants mostly have shit like custard or chocolate eclairs, not ice cream.

calenlass:
Yeah, nobody in Atlanta goes to Cafe Intermezzo for dinner. We go for the 40 page coffee-and-booze menu, and the desserts, because the place was ranked Best Desserts in Atlanta like 10 years in a row. I mean, they have food, but... it's just not done.

KharBevNor:
But Joe! Eclairs are so fabulous
