UD - Bananes Flambées at Les Halles
Bananes Flambées at Les Halles
The Heat: You’ll watch as a fire-wielding server wheels a dessert station to your table and spoons a simmering mixture of melted butter, sugar and black rum over a sliced banana. Then, another dose of rum, a tip of the pan and a burst of flame. This is how the French deal with unruly bananas.
The Heat Index: Medium

Introducing the Doughnut Ice Cream Sandwich
You’ve long appreciated the subtle art of putting one junk food inside…another junk food (e.g., the Twinkie in a Popsicle). Holey Cream continues the tradition: they’ll slice a doughnut in half and stuff it with their homemade ice cream. Good luck getting through airport security with this thing.

Special Sauce
Introducing the Boozy Cannoli
In honor of Prohibition Day, the Lower East Side wizards behind game-changers like gingerbread and bacon chocolate cannoli are unveiling a new line of boozy cannoli in flavors like Irish Coffee, Mudslide and Limoncello. Don’t let the fact that Prohibition Day was actually Dec 5 ruin a good time.

Thrillist - Spot

Eat Pichet: Spot
13 St Marks, btw 2nd and 3rd Ave; East Village; 212.677.5670

If all you crave’s dessert, Spot’s fusing Asian and American flavors in outdoorsy subterranean digs (striking barn wood walls, faux grass carpeting) to the tune of green tea cupcakes, Thai coffee pudding, white miso ice cream sandwiches, and esoteric toppings for homemade sherbert & ice creams flavors like Milk & Honey and Ovaltine — eat enough and return to your own days as an oval teen.

NUT HOUSE
Crème Brûlée Donuts Hit the L.E.S.

The Doughnut Plant has a long, sugary history of glazing, frying and jelly-injecting dough in curious and delectable ways. And we just got word that two new flavors—pumpkin and crème brûlée—just rolled their way into the shop. Be sure to wear proper attire while blowtorch flaming your doughnut.
