| - After an evening out with some friends, we were looking for a sweet way to end the night...someone suggested Is Sweet, and I'm so glad they did!
Tucked away in an awkwardly arranged strip mall (like most gems in Chinatown), Is Sweet is a cute little coffee shop with desserts and obviously coffee and tea beverages. It's open fairly late, which was a major selling point for us.
One friend had been here already, and suggested the honey toast...since I was a honey toast virgin, I trusted her recommendation and she did not steer me wrong. I asked the guy took our order how he liked his honey toast, and he suggested vanilla ice cream, strawberries, banana, and condensed milk...okay, why not?
My friends ordered different flavors of crepe cake--the matcha, the vanilla, and the red velvet. We created a nice little tasting table for ourselves.
I was very happy with the honey toast - the fruit was the perfect addition, with little bursts of tart strawberry. I wasn't as big of fan of the crepe cakes as I thought I would be, the vanilla was my favorite though. My honey toast was the clear winner, as the four of us demolished it.
Great place to grab dessert and have a conversation with friends or a date. I would definitely return, and provably try the mango honey toast next time, or the shave ice.
