Wine Garage: delicious dessert discovery

Here's the best kept secret about Wine Garage...

There is a dessert on its menu that is absolutely heavenly, and deserving of a pilgrimage to seek palate-enlightenment.


In fact, this dessert - called Date and Brown Butter Crostata with Fennel Gelato - is too delicious and exceptional to be saddled with such a boring, unimaginative name.

As with many things in life, the secret of success lies in achieving "balance". Wine Garage's interpretation of this italian tart is exemplary of the perfect balance between the "dough" and "date" - the taste of each is distinct, yet without one overpowering the other.

To best enjoy this rich-tasting Crosata, there should be a little coconut cream and a little fennel ice-cream with each bite. Just the perfect combination of complimentary tastes and textures.
