Dessert at EAT! bistro

I just posted on EAT! recently (psst!), so I don't think I need to cover the same ground over again. I'll just make a few points:

- First time eating dessert here, and it definitely lived up to its homemade billing. My companion and I both had the rhubarb tart, and it was served with a vanilla gelati. A fine combination of tart/sweet, warm/cool, crumbly/gooey. Yum.

- They have special "just about to close" menus, and they are NOT sandwiched between old used book covers. Boo.

- The "ugh!" remains in these "just about to close" menus. Maybe they don't update as frequently?

- I should really make a point to NOT mention loose tea in my next post, but: I know for a fact that they generally serve loose teas at EAT!, but I ordered a decaf green and received a tea bag.

Man, this sure ended up being a complain-y post for a generally positive experience. Ah, well.

I like EAT!! Is that better?
