Dessert was the star this week: this chile-lime pineapple with cardamom-lime ice cream recipe. And the sleeper favorite was the yummy chaat mixes that Nicole brought to top the impromptu chaat salad she added to the menu; I’ll add that recipe when she gives it to me.
I tried to make glacéed bananas to go with the dessert, but they were a fail; I think it was operator error and not the recipe. Folks were a bit mixed on the lawar, but I liked it. The spring rolls were a hit, but we all voted to change the sauce out for a peanut or sweet chili sauce next time. And everyone liked the smoky mezcal cocktail with the smoky lobster rolls.
