First Location: Spot Dessert Bar (Shoppe Location)

Background and Reason Why I’m Here: I heard many great things about this place from the friend who provided me with The List  (whom I’m going to dub Kelsi from now on) and was excited to start off my list with this dessert bar. It is located in the basement shop of the building on St Marks Place. There’s a bigger location just down the street, but I didn’t know that until I already started eating. The main reason I came here was because I was on a date with my partner around the area (try Ippudo Ramen Shop!!! They make pretty bomb ramen!). When I walked in, I was already half-full and was originally going to only order two items from the menu. BUT the waiter had to tell me that getting a third item would save me $5 and being a typical Asian, I couldn’t miss that money-saving opportunity. So I ordered three things, plus a Thai bubble tea. Mind you, my SO and I were already half-full and Kelsi told me she was only able to eat one and a half by herself...on an empty stomach. Surprisingly, we finished everything, it was THAT good.

Items Ordered: Matcha Lava - Very pretty presentation and tastes amazing! It is one of the signature dishes and is a must-have. It is a chocolate lava cake with matcha mixed into the chocolatety center. Once I cut open the cake, the gooey inside flows out. For me personally, I thought the cake was too dense and overwhelmingly sweet. But then again, that’s because I lost majority of my sweet tooth senior year of high school.

Golden Toast (Favorite Item) - When I first saw this, I thought it looked like firm tofu and that was a major turn-off. But once I had a bite, it was my favorite. Served with vanilla ice cream, whipped cream, and fresh-cut strawberries, the presentation was like the other three, simple and minimalist. The attention is not on the presentation, but on the taste. Both my SO and I agreed that this was our favorite. Plus, I really like desserts with a crispy outside and fluffy inside, the contrast in the textures just really gets me.

Big Orange - This is one of their seasonal items. I ate this last and I was full to the second ‘L’. Yet, I was able to finish it easily because of the chocolate mousse. If you like chocolate mousse, I would highly recommend this dessert as it’s essentially chocolate mousse with a layer of chocolate cake on the bottom. This was the cutest item on their menu and it had the best presentation of the three items I got.

Final Impression: It definitely lived up to the hype that Kelsi set up for me. I was blown away by the desserts as all three were very good. The little shoppe environment was very charming and the waitress was an amazing one-man team (someone please go help her >_<). The only two downsides to this location when compared to the location further down the street is that this location is small and doesn’t have a bathroom. Although it didn’t happen to me, there could be a possibility where you would have to wait for a table as there are only ~5 tables at this location. Despite those two negative points, I would still recommend and re-visit it once I’m done with the list or if they add something new to the menu!
