Carlyle

After visiting Gavin and the family out at Legacy Emanuel, Darr, his dad, and I stopped off for some dessert at Carlyle. Darr and I have only eaten here once before but this second trip gave us the same great service and food, suggesting either this is the norm for them or we've been lucky on both visits. The dessert menu offers a variety of treats for every palate, a good thing as each of us was longing for something different. Here's what we had -

Jim (Darr's dad) - Fresh Toasted Coconut Cream Tart with Golden Plum Sauce
Darr - Prosecco Gelée with Fresh Mixed Berries
Me - Strawberry Rhubard Tart with Housemade Hazelnut Praline Ice Cream

Hats off to the pastry chef, Steven Smith, clearly a talented master of desserts.
