I met up with Jaime at The Keg for her birthday over the past weekend. We were super full by the time we finished our entrées, but were too tempted by the dessert menu, so we each got the mini dessert trio:
Passion fruit crème brûlée
Strawberry shortcake with strawberry coulis
Chocolate fudge brownie s'mores
The crème brûlée was good, with the custard being really smooth and silky, and the burnt sugar was just crispy enough, but I think I would have preferred it if it wasn't passion fruit-flavoured, and if the custard was warmer. The strawberry shortcake was quite delightful, fluffy and light, but the strawberry syrup was too sweet, and I thought they should've added more actual strawberries. The s'mores were also good, but I would have preferred them without the brownies, to be honest. It was almost too much chocolate? And I would have liked the marshmallows to be a little more melty. Overall, they were decent and a nice mix in terms of flavours and textures, but they won't replace Billy Miner Pie as my favourite dessert at The Keg.
:D
