If you like trying new foods, Boston is such an experience
for the tastebuds. During my visit, my sister and I went for brunch and 647,
for if you can believe it, pop tarts. I must say only in America, can you get
pop tarts for breakfast with a grown-up twist. I can’t remember the last time I
ate an actual pop tart from the box, but this one was homemade, fresh and stuffed
with rhubarb. If you get a chance to go, visit 647 for their pop tart flavour
of the day. They have some other amazing brunch options as well. Did I mention
the coffee was amazing?

Chocolate and Caramel Fondue
Following this sweet delight, dessert later that day
consisted of visiting the Max Brenner chocolate shoppe. I have to say, I was
slightly disappointed in what I thought was going to be the highlight of my trip
in Beantown. My hot chocolate was a bit runny, and the chocolate fondue was wasn’t
that great. I don’t want to tout any horns, but I am pretty sure I make a
pretty mean fondue. Sadly this was not worth the calories for me but the experience
was delightful. The inside is somewhat like Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. Exposed
piping have been refitted and labelled so you think that there’s actual
chocolate flowing through them. While the concept is great, they need to rework the biggest
part of their menu…chocolate!

This was extremely rich...I think I would have preferred fruit.

Looks delicious! Glad you are enjoying your trip.
ReplyDeleteA homemade pop tart? I have never heard of such a thing. I can't believe people feed that boxed ish to their kids! I think I liked them for a few years when I was little, and that was it. Empty calories, but they are yummy. I bet the homemade one was delicious.

I like the idea of a homemade pop tart, especially stuffed with a more tart fruit like rhubarb to balance out some of the sweetness. What's in the last picture?
