Some college kids in Miami opened The Cereal Bowl across from UM. You can actually add things like Snow Caps and Marshmallow Fluff to Frosted Flakes. I'm slipping into a diabetic coma just thinking about it...
But I agree with PerkyMac - Lemons. Yum!
Wow. That looks really lovely. Not too sweet, and with the herbal bite of absinthe to balance the grenadine. Definitely one to try soon.
Ginger Cupcakes with Ginger Cream Cheese Frosting. Yum.
I am an unabashed lover of milk chocolate. Oh, I know the dark stuff is good for you, and it's pretty tasty, too, but nothing compares to the way milk chocolate melts on your tongue.
Definitely peanut butter. I, too, have eaten at Peanut Butter & Co. in New York (and LOVED it), but I'd love to have a more upscale restaurant and definitely an even larger menu than they currently do. Peanut butter can be used in so many ways - from sweet to savory, appetizers to dessert, Latin American to Thai flavors, and just about everything in between.....
Oh my gosh - a garlic restaurant! Brilliant!
eatorama - ever heard of "Cheeburger Cheeburger"? They do something like that, with all the crazy toppings & whatnot. Give 'em a google search sometime, check out the website. We got one in LR about a year ago (or so), but... honestly... when I went there it was all hype and not a lot of delivery.
@johnfred--you made me think about a sauce I haven't made in a long time--vanilla bean burre blanc. The vanilla bean is opened and added into the cream and vinegar when they are reduced. Then you remove the bean and proceed as usual.
..... Parmesan Cheese! The real deal --- all dishes made with Parmesan -- could get very creative!, but nothing too strange- no chocolate/parmesan desserts, etc. Other than that, it would be heaven!
P.S. Re the garlic themed restaruant -- in Madison, NJ there is a restaurant called Garlic Rose -- all garlic, all the time, every dish -- I can't go near the place and if you are with someone who does, you can't go near them for a couple of days.
Where's the grilled cheese in Ohio??? I wanna go...
Went to S'Mac in Manchester, CT last fall...not incredible, but not bad. Was fun for our kids.
I used to love the chain Noodles & Co. when I worked in suburban Detroit...they had every kind of noodle dish, from pad Thai to mushroom stroganoff, to noodle salads. They also had fresh-baked flatbread served with large pats of butter that was almost yummier than the noodles.
My personal choice, though...mushrooms. Mushroom risotto, mushroom soup, and I imagine you could do all kinds of dishes using portobellos to replace meat...stir-fries, sandwiches, etc. Not sure what you'd do for dessert though...maybe those mushroom-shaped chocolate truffles??
I would love a place devoted to vanilla. I am a sucker for all things custardy and rich. Puddings, cakes, cookies, pastries. Some complimentary flavors as well - cherries, almond, coconut. That way maybe I could find a biscuit tortoni equal to the one I had in Venice the summer I turned 20.
But no chocolate, not even the white stuff.
"Garlique's", everything with garlic. Appetizers, soups and main dishes... I'll just bet some creative minds out there would have some dessert ideas too! Maybe baked apples/pears with a melted garlic cheese...
Lemons is a good one too!
