Dessert Club, ChikaLicious

Banana Dessert

We were having a date night when we got an urge for dessert. Immediately, Chikalicious popped into my head, because I've been hearing great things about it for so long. We arrived on E 10th in the East Village and were immediately confused by the TWO Chikalicious locations across the street from one another. We quickly assessed that the Dessert Bar is a bit more upscale, an intimate bar seating environment perfect for a romantic date. However, we really just wanted to grab a quick sweet snack, so the Dessert Club was more up our alley for this evening.

The Mr. couldn't decide between a Banana based dessert (Banana Pudding perhaps?) and an Ice Cream Sandwich. I'm not much of a banana flavored lover, so I offered to split the ice cream sandwich with him and let him have that one to himself. He was pretty pleased with both.

We also got a couple of goodies to take home. There was a green tea tiramisu which we honestly didn't care too much for. There was also a pumpkin pie in a flaky, pastry crust. You'll notice I don't have a picture of that one. There's a good reason for that. Mostly that I couldn't hold myself back long enough to get my camera and attacked it with a fork. Mmmmm.

No doubt ChikaLicious knows their desserts and has some tasty offerings. Unfortunately, they are located a bit too close to Momofuku Milk Bar which remains our favorite dessert spot in the East Village. However, I would definitely like to check out the Dessert Bar location for a special occasion.
