| - I really, really wanted to love Destingo, but it just didn't work out that way.
I came by here for brunch this weekend, super excited to order off the menu. There was so much delicious sounding goodness: how ever could I decide?!
I started off with the Morrochino (listed as espresso, "rich chocolate", and steamed milk). To my surprise, the "rich chocolate" turned out to be Nutella. Not that I don't love Nutella but I'm not fond of the fact that my server didn't even tell me about the menu change. Two other people from my party ordered it, the but the other three that wanted it were told no because they were "out of the glasses they serve them in." They went with lattes instead, but guess what? Ended up with the same glasses ours came in. Not top notch customer service.
I went with porchetta pancake. As soon as I got it I regretted my choice. SUPER heavy. Caked with pulled porchetta on the bottom but wayyyy too much meat (and I love meat!) I wasn't a fan of whatever sauce the porchetta was covered in. On the bright side: the dish is served with a jack Daniels maple syrup. Gettin drunk on pancakes? Yes please!
I tried the panettone French toast: it is more panettone and less French toast. Not really battered like French toast normally is. Get this if you're looking for a sweet, dessert like treat.
We wanted to hang out and grab more coffee after we ate, but our server disappeared.
Overall, wasn't impressed.
