Dessert as the Destination: A Three-Course Tasting Experience

Get Tickets

Three plated desserts. Thoughtful pairings. A sweet way to spend the evening — together.

Join us for an intimate, seated dessert experience where dessert is the destination. This ticketed evening features three beautifully plated dessert courses, each paired with a curated coffee or tea selection, served sequentially at private tables in our cozy café.

Whether you’re planning a Valentine’s date, celebrating with friends, or simply looking for a special night out, this experience is designed to feel relaxed, indulgent, and unrushed. It’s a perfect option if you’re skipping dinner or heading somewhere special afterward.

Each guest receives their own individually plated desserts, thoughtfully composed and served throughout the evening. Coffee pairings feature selections from Caffè Umbria, and tea pairings are curated from DAVIDsTEA, chosen to complement each course.

The Dessert Courses & Pairings

First Course
Butterscotch Pot de Crème
A silken butterscotch custard, slow-set for deep caramelized flavor and finished with softly whipped vanilla chantilly and crisp toffee strusel. Rich, comforting, and perfectly balanced.
Coffee Pairing: Bizzarri

Second Course
Profiterole with Goat Cheese Mascarpone & Roasted Strawberry Sauce
Delicate choux pastry filled with lightly tangy goat cheese mascarpone mousse and finished with roasted strawberry sauce. Sweet, savory, creamy, and bright.

Third Course
Pistachio Crèmeux with Chocolate & Knafeh
A composed finale of smooth pistachio crèmeux layered with dark chocolate ganache, crisp chocolate sablé, buttery kanafi, and candied pistachios. Nutty, rich, and designed to linger.
