Is there a dessert-only restaurant coming to your neighborhood?

July 7, 2006

Global new business spotting website, Springwise, reported recently on the opening of a second New York dessert restaurant, Chikalicious.  After spotting Room 4 Dessert in New York, and Espai Sucre in Barcelona previously, Springwise wonders if a third opening signals a growing trend.  Certainly, Chikalicious owners, Don and Chika Tillman, point out the rationale, "We wanted to create a place that would allow you to go have noodles across the street and then come here for a very nominal price to have a wonderfully treated dessert."

At $12 for a three-course dessert menu, they just might have a captured audience.  Who's up for a burger and a four-star dessert?

I don't remember the name of it, but there was a dessert-only tasting menu type restaurant in Sydney that I visited back in 1986 or so. They were struggling then, despite being quite good, I'm guessing they're no longer around - couldn't find any online info about it.

Turks have had dessert restaurants for centuries. Not new for the Turks.
