If there are several people in your party, con them into getting multiple samplings of these freshly made desserts just so you can nab a taste. Call it cross-cultural research and try an Italian, a German, and a French indulgence. I was almost moved to a poem with its richness and decadence. Wonderfully smooth and creamy, the mousse held a wonderfully deep quality. A plate of the mousse and a glass of port are good enough excuses for a visit.
Most European restaurants go out of their way to make a signature tiramisu.
As I'm a sucker for this little extravagant item, I had to try Charivari's. True, it was light, creamy, and fluffy, but in the final analysis, it really just came across as bland. It is the basic continental dining experience, and serves up a spiked punch in martini glasses instead of mimosas. Although the menu sports languages and cuisines not typically encountered in your standard Houston eatery, nonetheless Charivari is not for the high-adventure dining crowd. Instead, it offers a safe dining experience and the dishes will not scare the cautious.
