To fend away from restaurants that exclude the youth because of the open bar, Extraordinary Desserts is a place where the under aged can grab a light bite to eat and lavish their desserts that they are widely recognized for in San Diego and not be afraid of being booted out because of the age limits.
It is located 1430 Union St. San Diego, Calif. 92101, amongst other fine dining. It won best Desserts in San Diego Magazine reader’s and critic’s choice and features dozens of cakes, tarts, pies, custards, puddings, cookies, shortbreads, cupcakes, ice cream and more. It’s just the right place for an afternoon brunch, a light lunch and an evening full of a wide variety of desserts. Almost every plate of desert is sharable size. Nighttime is when it is the busiest. Diners come after dinner to enjoy a sweet bite to share.
“I’m not a chocolate fan, but the desserts are beautiful and there is a wide variety of desserts and teas to choose from. I had the blackberry bread pudding, crème brulee. It was amazing!” Denise Karadine, an occasional diner said.
People have to literally wait out the door to order these decadent desserts. They bakers do a fantastic job with the presentation. All the desserts have flowers on them and each dessert is carefully executed with little additions here and there, from the careful strokes of chocolate drizzle to the gold foil flakes set on each dessert.
