Dessert at Alinea

Here’s a short video of the final dessert at Alinea from our trip to Chicago. Work of art. Sneaky buggers filled me with sugar (though it was worth it). I particularly liked the violet sauce (though it sounded like it was made with violence). Nom nom nom

  The brown stuff is melted milk chocolate. I can’t remember what the rest of it is made of but the chef says what each ingredient (most of them anyway) is as he puts it out.

Hi Dan
My daughter sent me an email to show me this amazing desert made on the table, just imagine my shock when I saw it was your website. It really is a small world. Looks like you’re having a great time, keep it up. Love Pam Byatt

  Haha. Such a small world. Maybe she got it in a roundabout way from Catherine McIver as I know she’d sent it around. Hope things are well with you. Love Dan.
