Today I had lunch at the most darling spot called Lemonade, on Beverly in West Hollywood. The array of delectable foods and desserts had me so giddy that I literally clapped and squealed to my friend “I’m so excited!” This typical burst of DD-enthusiasm elicited a sideways glance from a painfully waif yet towering model. Hmm. Whatever- Yummy Food!
For dessert I ordered this gigantic, pistachio flavored macaroon, and a slice of red velvet cake.
Pistachio Macaroon
The gigantic macaroon was the size of my full palm and probably consisted of about four and a half normal macaroons in one. When you bite into to it, a thin shell gives way to a soft chewy cookie that’s almost cake-like due to the sheer volume. Then your teeth continue to sink into the softest, gooiest, and most delightful ganache filling that’s sweet with a dynamic hint of lemon. I Love this rendition of the trendy Macaroon!
Red Velvet Cake
I also swooned over the delicious red velvet cake which was layered in a veil of coconut flakes. The cake itself was super moist with mild flavors, and while the icing alone could have used a slight kick, the coconut shavings perfectly enhanced the flavor with it’s sweet and distinct taste. If you like coconut, you’ll love this red velvet cake. If not, this is not the red velvet for you.
