We just finished having sushi at Ki Sushi and as we are walking home I realized I need dessert.
And as it happens we are walking by Piva, that will do nicely.
Gonna kick things off with their awesome espresso Martini.
They don’t mess around with their espresso martinis. Real espresso and top shelf vodka make for a rich and smooth cocktail. If I didn’t have to sleep tonight I’d have a second. And maybe a third. Merilynn had one as well.
This is a Tiramisu Sundae
I am not entirely sure of all the components that make up this incredible take on the Italian classic. But it starts with delicious espresso gelato. There’s a crunch in there that I’m sure is lady fingers. I only had a small taste, this was Sophia’s pick. But that one taste was phenomenal. It would be too much for most people to eat on their own though. A great shareable though.
My choice? A tart au citron.
A very nice presentation and a really great tasting dessert. The Coulis was likely raspberry, though it’s hard to tell sometimes.
Unlike the very rich and very sweet tiramisu Sunday, this was a lot easier to eat. The balance of sweet and tart creates a very nice eating experience. Not just a sugar rush.
My only criticism was the curd itself. Tasted great but it had a grainy texture that did take away from the overall quality.
Regardless a very nice treat after some sushi next door.
