Oh, did I sample a lot of sweets that day! 346 Patisserie is a European style bakery and gelato shop that holds off on overly sweetening their dishes and focuses on the flavors that make each variety different. We sampled quite a few of their gelatos and every one had the labeled flavors stand out distinctly without relying on a ton of sugar. So we got two half-scoops.
Then I had a chocolate chip cookie.
And three macarons. And some freeze dried marshmallow topping. Nom.
In all seriousness, the chocolate chip cookie was fantastic. It had a nice nutty flavor that you get from baked buttery goodness and the chocolate was in abundance.
The macarons were equally delicious while, once again, not being overly sweet. I was excited to try the truffle macaron, which while tasty, didn't exactly make me think truffle - perhaps it's because the sweetness of being a cookie doesn't exactly match truffle. The passion fruit was great though.
It was a lot of fun to see them blowtorch a marshmallow then pour liquid nitrogen right on top of it, but the result wasn't as great as I expected. After about a minute or two, it was just marshmallow mixed into ice cream.
346 Patisserie isn't exactly cheap, but the quality speaks for itself.
