60 West 53rd Street
(between Fifth and
Sixth Avenues)
Went to one of my usual favorite Happy Hour spots: China
Grill.
Ordered my usual cocktail: Lycheetini—love that it comes
with an actual lychee!
My friend ordered a mint tea, which gets served in a VERY
heavy teapot!
But my posting is about their famous dessert: bananas in a
box. It consists of caramelized bananas with cinnamon, brown sugar, and fudge
contained within a caramelized type of cookie box topped with a pastry cream
and delicately spun sugar and chocolate.
It gets served in a wonderful tableside presentation. A
pitcher of caramel is served on the side, which then gets poured directly over
the dessert.
We ordered the small portion and it was more than enough for
two. We actually couldn’t finish it.
Delish and as decadent as it looks!
