If you are ever looking for something sweet, you will always be covered.
Of course, I wanted to try something new because, why not, right?! It was recommended to me by our amazing server, so of course I had to try it.
This lovely, sweet dish is called "Creme Brulee" which is a custard topped with a layer of hardened caramelized sugar. It does consist of vanilla which creates a great hint of flavor within the taste of this dessert. Now, if you've never had this dessert before, you know that with it being caramelized on top, it has hardened. Once I got over that fact, and realized going into the custard it softened, I then began to try it.
This dish can also be known as "burned cream" or "burnt cream" due to the hardened caramelized sugar topping with a middle that has more of a soft, warm, slightly chilled texture. In most cases, this would absolutely work, having both a hard and soft texture together. However, while it wasn't bad, I would prefer not to have this dessert. I was not as interested in the top layer to just sit and eat, because it only reminded me of extremely hard candy and it was really sweet, and I felt that the textures did not work for my taste palette.
Overall, I would rate this dish a 6/10, it wasn't extremely bad, and for what it was described to me as, it was made perfectly. It was just too sweet for me, and I did not care for the top layer with the bottom layer. However, if you've never experienced it before, go try it, you just might like it. Also, if you have experienced it before and feel that maybe I should try it again somewhere else, feel free to use the comment and recommend some places for me to try.
