With the sauces it's a decadent dream. The dessert cart includes raspberry and strawberry tarts, a tiramisu, cheesecake, a chocolate torte and a selection of cheeses. It's almost a simple dessert, slices of caramelized apple over a tender crust. Just before the check arrives, the waiter brings a small tray with two chocolate and hazelnut truffles, the creamy interior covered with an almost crunchy dark chocolate shell. There are plenty of selections by the glass.
Service is charmingly friendly and chatty.
The table was visited by at least five staffers, including waiters, busboys and others. An evening here isn't cheap, but it felt worth every penny to me. Only problem is, once you're finished, you have to walk back out to the strip center parking lot and reality. Reviewers do not notify restaurants in advance of their visits. The newspaper pays for all meals.
