Spot Dessert Bar

I was disappointed when his restaurant P*ong closed so was thrilled to hear that pastry wizard Pichet Ong is back, now with a dessert bar called Spot. I recently stopped in with a friend and Miss Toddler S to review it for Paper Magazine.

Here are two highlights, but stay tuned for my full review, or better yet, stop by and try one of Pichet’s imaginative desserts.

My recommendations:

White miso semifreddo
Yuzu eskimo
Vanilla caramel Vietnamese coffee cupcake
&
a Vietnamese coffee

Mocha maldon salt caramel cupcake. My toddler approved. The vanilla caramel Vietnamese coffee cupcake (which I took home) was also wonderful.
