For some time now, the restaurant has decided that desserts are for sharing and throwing rockets. How much imagination! What an array of ingredients! Long live baroque!
Whether you like it or not, the culinary philosophy pushes us to share and the four cats who resist this socialization are left as unsupportive. It doesn’t matter if some diner imposes an infernal rhythm in the pica-pica and slips the triple ham. Or stick your fingers into the communal dish. The villain of the film at the table is the supporter of everyone eating their plate!
With the dessert of 2023 of the Christian era, the war is over. I give up: I go straight to coffee. I am not worthy of this dessert with a statement that the waiter takes longer to recite than it takes to read the entire letter.
-Some chocolate desserts?
– Yes, a fondant.
I don’t like the bull anymore. If you think you’re going to get a chocolate fondant, you’re ready. A palette of colors appears on the table, a symphony of ingredients, the crowning glory of empathy. The fondant, rai. A scoop of hazelnut or vanilla ice cream, berries, dabs of marmalade and a little bit of chopped dried fruit, which stays between the teeth.
Let’s see who dares to ask for the fruit of time! Naturally, if it is a meal with a formidable lady, the most advisable dessert is not to ask for two kisses, one on the cheek, but two teaspoons. Shut up and put on a good face…
I imagine that the fault lies with those who share a lot and lower the bill, which pushes restaurants to these overcharged desserts, which – in my opinion – go against the nature of desserts, a simple pass and not a trick studied Something fresh or sweet, with an elegant bill but without so much flourish.
God forbid I include among the causes of dessert empowerment the thesis that women, in the summer, ask little and share a lot, so the restaurant saves the silver bullet for dessert . One, as you can see, goes in the opposite direction and longs for the simplicity of those desserts that were what they advertised. Flam with cream, for example.
