| - My friends and I weren't excited about dessert options at Mavrik, so after dinner, we wandered around looking for somewhere to sit down for dessert. However most dessert places in the area, like Nadege or Dufflet or Dlish cupcakes, close early so we were stuck. Luckily, we stumbled upon this place which has just been open ~2 weeks. We were immediately drawn the the bright display of tarts and the cheery robin's egg blue and white decor. Our server was patient and sweet, and they have a survey that they encouraged us to fill out at the end. It seems that since they are just opening, they really value customer feedback.
We shared a strawberry and dark chocolate sauce crepe, which is served open-face instead of the usual folded version, with fresh whipped cream. Yummy and great for sharing! We all had to try their hot chocolate. This is hot chocolate taken to another level... No syrups or powders are used. It's all valrhona chocolate from France. You can customize your hot chocolate by choosing: 2% milk or cream, milk or dark chocolate, and flavour (e.g. vanilla, green tea white chocolate, chili, dulce de leche, mint...). At $5.99 per mug, it's steep, but it makes for a nice treat to savour slowly.
A welcome addition to the neighbourhood!
