Extraordinary dessert

August 14th, 2011

Most of the time, extended perusal of a restaurant menu is time wasted.  You’re probably at a chain restaurant, and whatever you order will probably be neither horrible nor exceptional.  You won’t even remember what you ate after a couple of days.  Just pick something and get on with it.

That logic didn’t apply while I was at Extraordinary Desserts in San Diego with my friend Stacy.  You see, the desserts at Extraordinary Desserts were, well, extraordinary.  There was a good chance that whatever I chose would be the best execution on a particular dessert theme that I would taste in my life.  Lots of pressure.  I didn’t want to squander the chance.

Fortunately, my decision-analysis studies kicked in, and I realized that I was facing a selection of one alternative from many, among which I was indifferent.  The upshot was that I could safely pick any of the desserts: the data available at the time suggested that I’d enjoy each of them equally.

I went with the mixed-berry cobbler, which was served warm.  It was excellent.
