| - FABULOUS.
My boyfriend and I rushed over to Moroco on Saturday night after having dinner. We got there at 11:30pm and we got there just in the nick of time. Our server actually asked the kitchen to reopen for us and for the couple that arrived just before us. Luckily, I knew what I wanted: The Three Brulées. A trio of Vanilla Bean, Dark Chocolate and Sweet Chili & Caramel Ginger was set before us in minutes, and it was gone in minutes, too.
The lounge interior is GORGEOUS. Plush, regal, sophisticated, trendy, candlelit... so very romantic... so very fun.
After our dessert, we perused the actual store. We got a quick overview of ALL the truffles and decided on a box of 6:
(1) GEISHA: White Couverture w/ White Chocolate & Green Tea,
(1) FLIRT: 40% Deep Milk Couverture w/ Tangy Raspberry Ganache
(1) CARAMEL & ROASTED PECANS: 62% Dark Bittersweet Couverture w/ Soft Caramel & Roasted Pecans
(1) MARQUIS DE NOIR: 66% Dark Couverture w/ Dark Ganache
(2) [I can't remember the name]: Dark Couverture w/ Moet
I thought two champagne-infused pieces were fitting for the occasion. We got to try a few samples of a trial batch of truffles from St. Patrick's day (one that was guiness infused and one with mint). We also got to try a white chocolate truffle w/ olive oil in it. Smooooooth...
With so many different truffles, macarons, and pastries here, I will definitely be coming back! They're officially opening their patio this weekend. I'm looking forward to a Sunday Brunch in the near future.
