Rolling With DessertTruck
DessertTruck Debuts
Monday, November 5, 2007
Some people skip dessert to cut carbs.
That’s just wrong.
Dessert is a gift from the gastronomy gods. It’s the best for last and it’s why you’ll be obsessed with the just opened DessertTruck. Rolling Mister Softee-style in four wheels, a tricked-out mobile kitchen, and a laptop (ThinkPad + Excel = new cash register) is partner/pastry chef Jerome Chang (a former pastry sous chef at Le Cirque), and partner/Columbia MBA student Chris Chen.
You may forget their names but you won’t forget their fine $5 desserts (served in eco-friendly containers with a smile). Resist the temptation to order “one of each” (though everything is excellent), instead try the Chocolate Bread Pudding topped with bacon crème anglaise. Chocolate aficionados will also be pleased with DT’s Molten Chocolate Cake sprinkled with sea salt and roasted pistachios. They also make a mean Apple A Day, a perfect union of slow-baked apples, crisp puff pastry, and whipped cream (order it à la mode).
And since drinks and desserts are a natural, DessertTruck is adding beverages to the menu.
How sweet is that?
