Yet another fun place to visit here in Denver! Marty and Rebekah Joyce, two wonderful people in my life, visited Denver over Christmas and found d bar! I haven't gone here the whole time I've been away at school, and they suggested it and gave me a gift card to go with Jessica, my previous baking and pastry roommate.
This cute little place is a Dessert bar (d Bar)...makes sense. It is a really cute but VERY small restaurant. They serve a lot of foods as well. I've been recommended their mac and cheese, and pulled pork, but they change their menu from time to time so I didn't see the pork. We decided to go on the cheaper side because we're poor college students, so we got sweet potato fries...and man did we make a good choice!
Here is the rest of the food menu!
Now for desserts....oh desserts....
I'm surprised that Jessica and I aren't blood related, because we are both so indecisive! It took us a great deal of time figuring out what to choose. With some suggestions from our waitress, I chose the dessert named "Pink" and Jessica chose the creme brulee!
Now do you understand why it's called pink? It took us the whole time she was making it to realize why! haha...
So the main item of the dessert is that white thing everything is sitting on. It was a buttermilk panna cotta, which is an Italian eggless custard. The dark pink on top is a prickly pear sorbet, the pink stuff in the way back is micro sponge (wierd texture, kinda like fluff), the light pink on the right side of the panna cotta is a raspberry cloud, and the brown is an almond crumble. It was so delicious and super filling! The best part of it all was we got to see them make it right in front of us! Here's some more pics!
Here's Jessica's dessert!
She had vanilla bean creme brulee with almond, orange and caramel biscotti! So delicious and beautiful!
As I said, they change the menu so this is pretty much the same menu as we saw, with a few changes.
So once again, I highly recommend this place for a date night or just a hang out with friends! It's definitely a place to visit, and ask to sit at the bar, even if you have to wait! It's worth it because you get to watch them make the dessert right in front of you!
Remember, STRESSED is DESSERTS spelled backwards!
Enjoy the little things in life...stress less and smile often!
