| - It's pretty. It's great to take photos of. The service is polite. But it's also overdone.
There's a minimum $12 order per customer now - did you know? I feel like that's a bit of a stretch for a dessert shop, though we obliged and ordered.
COURSES
Raspberry sorbet - good
Ichigo - pretty, but flavors were whatever
The pannacotta in the glass - decent, though the chocolate was odd
I think there's a reason why the chef was awarded for her pastry-ability back in the day, but the menu has literally not changed one iota, which shows me a high level of laziness. No, changing the flavor of the sorbet does not count. If you want to be able to demand big bucks in the dessert business and keep bringing in customers, you need to continue innovating. I'm not surprised there's no more lines waiting to come here - there's not enough of a draw to keep me coming back for more.
By the way, it actually gets worse - in the past you actually got more for your money. The menu used to be edible, and now even that is lacking, despite the bump in prices.
GOOD: pretty courses if you've never seen them before, decent interior design, polite service
OKAY: non-changing menu
BAD: new price restriction, negative changes to courses
