A desserts place opens soon by Raku.
They have prix fixe menu for 19 bucks. It includes 3 courses desserts. The first course is sorbet, it's like an appetizer. The second course is your pick from the Today's menu. And the third course is chef's special.
They are doing soft opening by invitations only i think. Their grand opening is August 6th.
This restaurant is small, maybe 20 seats. The decor is simple. The space is very opened and well lit. They have a bar and you can watch them making your desserts.
I had mango sorbet with mint jello as the first course. The mint jello balanced out the sweet and sour of the mango sorbet. It was such a great start.
The second course i tried named apollo. It's basically chocolate and raspberry mousse with chocolate sponge cake and fresh cream ice cream. The meringue and the chocolate crispy rice came with it was so good. Everything comes well together and it's not too sweet.
Also in the second course choice was the marriage. It is banana sponge cake, banana pudding, strawberry mousse and white chocolate decorations. It was ok.
The last course was the lava chocolate cake with pineapple and raspberry marshmallow. It was the sweetest dessert overall. The size of it was small, its such a right portion to finish off 3 courses desserts meal.
I love their concept: a little sour to start off the meal, a little bit of sweet as the main course, and a sweeter desserts to finish off the meal as dessert. They did a very good job to balance out the sweetness, it's not too overwhelming.
However 3 courses desserts might be a bit too much, i might not come back anytime soon. It's a meal by itself.
Oh their coffees and teas are very good too.
