smiling about...

café gourmand

The dreaded question: would you like to see the dessert menu? Everyone knows they want some, but everyone replies "no, I'm too full" or "I'll just have a look".  Cafe gourmand (three desserts and espresso/coffee)  is just the thing to have after a lovely meal and not feel the guilt.  In France they call it cafe gourmand, in the U.S. they call it a dessert flight.  You can share or not feel too guilty having it all to yourself.  More deets here...
