I forgot a cupcake!
D'OH! How could I forget the cupcakes at one of my FAVORITE bakeries/cafes in the area: French Meadow? I guess I forgot because they're a bit overwhelming for one person to eat X(! While their cupcakes are moist and dense, like Cafe Latté's, they're TWICE as big o~O! One could get diabetes from one cupcake alone. The frosting is also a bit on the sweet sugary side for me too --;. I still prefer Cafe Latté's cupcakes to even glorious French Meadow. I DO highly recommend French Meadow's OTHER decadent desserts though. My sister LIVES on their low-fat berry scones which are just as delicious as their regular scones. I personally love their cakes, and believe me since I've tried almost every cake on their menu! Every single cake I've tried there is THE best I've tasted! Their carrot cake is award winning, moist, dense, and full of flavor with really soft and lush cream cheese frosting! My personal favorite cake though is their triple chocolate cake with lush chocolate whip cream frosting in between the layers!
Their menu is wonderfully diverse AND they even offer several organic, vegan, and gluten-free dishes and desserts (some of which I see you can even order online which I haven't seen in their restaurant)! Even though I'm not a vegan, I LOVE their organic tofu scrambler! It's wonderfully rich in all sorts of flavors! I always order a side of organic tofu scrambler there to whatever else I'm ordering just because! I know my sister has been trying to figure out how to duplicate their organic tofu scrambler for a few years now without any success --;. I think she couldn't figure out what tofu to buy for the right texture XP!
French Meadow also offers REAL hot chocolate made from MELTING REAL CHOCOLATE and mixing it with milk! You've never tasted cocoa or hot chocolate until you've tasted French Meadow's! It's so rich in chocolate flavor, you'll always know when you're drinking the real thing vs. a powdered mixture! If there were a such a thing as a Star Trek transporter, I would invite ALL my friends to eat there at least once, especially my vegan and gluten-sensitive friends!
