After Dok Suni and Mock Your World, dessert to end the evening on a sweet note – since we were nearby, I took DLS to Veniero’s, one of my favorite Italian bakeries.
DLS ordered the fruit tart, which looked really tasty… but I didn’t try any. As I told him on the spot – fruit tarts are for boring people! I’m anything but boring. 😉
Since I’ve written about Veniero’s quite a bit already, I wrote this post mostly just to show off this photo. I ordered the pistachio tulip or something… I just pointed at the picture they had in the menu. A thin chocolate shell wrapped around a bland sponge cake, layered with pistachio cream that was a bit too buttery and had too little pistachio taste to it, the dessert was less substance and more show. That’s more than I can say about a lot of people… at least this one was pretty. Ha.
As always, though, Veniero’s is a great end to any night.

How deceiving! It looks so good though.

Really is a shame. So pretty!

Never again for their lobster tail.
Maybe a chocolate cake item the next time I’m in the hood.
