A Sweet Way to Top Off a Birthday Celebration!…read more Well, since it was my daughter's birthday, it was only fitting that we top off the day with coffee and something sweet! So, off we went to D'Caramel Patisserie, a cute little place that was cozy, clean, and inviting. When we walked in, there were already a few customers enjoying their treats. The place was very clean, well-maintained, and nicely organized. We were greeted by two of the sweetest young ladies, no pun intended! working behind the counter. Ms. Ari and Ms. Paige both had gorgeous smiles and were incredibly polite, friendly, and welcoming. Since we were still pretty full from lunch, we didn't want to overindulge... although being surrounded by all those goodies certainly made that decision a little harder! We settled on a Black Forest NY Roll for $7.95 and an Acorn for $11.75. The Black Forest NY Roll was flaky, filled with pumpkin cream, and very tasty. The Acorn was also delicious. The cream wasn't heavy or overly sweet, it was just right-down tasty! And of course, if you're fixin' to have sweets, coffee is a must! My daughter ordered a 12 oz. hot Latte for $5.45. My wife got a 16 oz. iced Americano with half-and-half for $4.25, and I went with a 12 oz. Cappuccino with caramel for $7.45. We all enjoyed our selected beverages, and they were a perfect way to finish our birthday outing. From what we were told, D'Caramel Patisserie has been open for approximately three years, and it's definitely a cute little place worth checking out. So, if you're in the area and have a hankering for something sweet, come support this local little gem! Stop in, grab yourself a pastry and coffee, and be sure to say hello to the two lovely ladies, Ms. Ari and Ms. Paige. Sometimes, a birthday celebration doesn't need anything fancy--just family, good coffee, something sweet, and a couple of friendly smiles. And that's exactly what we found here!

Salty Disappointment…read more Normally wedding cakes are sweet, but my own experience with Jenny Layne Bakery (JLB) for my wedding cake was salty. It started out well enough; Jenny is kind and cares about her work (we met her at an open house event). I chose her because of her accolades, her beautiful cakes on Instagram, the fact that my MOH enjoyed working with her, and because she was my venue's preferred baker. All good things, right? So I thought. My now-husband, parents, and I tasted boxed up cupcakes instead of an in person cake tasting post-Covid. I wasn't impressed by most of the cupcake flavors, but it was too late since we'd already booked with JLB, and I thought, "At least the final cake will be beautiful." After I researched wedding cakes, Jenny and I personally worked on the wedding cake design together. I was excited with what we came up with! A lovely white cake with royal blue ribbon, an edible "C" crest for my new last name, and some classy pearl necklaces wrapped around two tiers to match the one I'd wear that day. Come wedding day, I saw the wedding cake for the first time at the reception and was surprised to learn that there wasn't one but two things wrong with the cake. First, the "C" crest was missing. Second, the pearl necklaces had slid off the rims of the tiers in several places, so they were more pearl "L" shaped (see pictures below). After my honeymoon, I reached out to JLB and nicely asked what happened, sending pictures of the cake design vs. the final reception result. Jenny herself let me know that it was "a sad cake" and asked how she could make it up to me as she understood she couldn't redo my wedding cake. She also explained that the delivery person dropped the edible crest, which she forgot to tell me earlier, and it seemed the pearls had melted in the sun. Apparently 72 degrees is too hot for a professional four tier wedding cake, but not a one tier groom's cake my mother's friend made that had traveled over 250 miles in a car without an issue. Thus, I asked for a refund. A few days later, Jenny's assistant let me know they could not give a refund because "Walters does not offer refunds and because we do not handle the financials as it pertains to the wedding packages." Aka because I went with the Walters Weddings vendor package and preferred bakery, the bakery can't do a refund directly, as we paid the Walters Wedding venue for the cake. Therefore, Walters would need to refund the bakery for the cake (or something like that). JLB could offer a new anniversary tier or $50 in store credit to be used by the end of the year. Mind you, JLB did not bother to reach out about the "C" crest being damaged even though they knew it was upon arrival. The venue placed the cake where they normally do as this bakery and venue have worked together countless times with Jenny Layne Bakery listed as its preferred vendor. I reached out to the venue's GM and told her the story. She said she'd see what she could do. Nearly three weeks later, I followed up with the venue GM again. Then Jenny reached out and offered the same $50, but now as a refund, store credit, or an anniversary tier. We opted for the $50 refund, a salty disappointment to what I was expecting to be a sweet and beautiful wedding cake. If you've made it to the end of this review, please know Jenny Layne Bakery doesn't come recommended from me because they made not one but two mistakes, and because of the lackluster consolidation offered. I chose this bakery primarily for the aesthetics - and that's where they fell short *twice* with my wedding cake. So I'm coming home with $50 to make up for this "sad cake." Brides to be, something will go wrong on your wedding day. But ensure your vendors care enough about you as a customer to try to right their wrongs, as I experienced with my hair stylist, but not with my bakery.

I'm glad I glanced on the way out, and saw the other side was open. I waltzed up and asked for some thoughts on the menu, and made my choice. The barrista on hand was very helpful discussing the menu. You have your classics, but I like to see what different establishments specialize in. I had a customized Kitchen Witch as I'm not too into overly sweet drinks. It was very good! I rarely drink a hot coffee, 99.9% my coffee is iced (not blended). So they hooked it up just right. So much so that I forgot to take a picture of my drink. Like most speciality coffee, it's about $7-$8. Starbucks has now become the cheaper coffee joint (not hating, I get my cold brews from there). The location was clutch, because I picked up breakfast at the food park too. See my next review :)

We ordered on their kiosk on the side (there's 2 and it's the only way to order) - the machine menu was a little wonky (it wouldn't present all of the ice cream flavors) and FYI it does charge a small service fee for using the kiosk, proportional to how much your order is, in the end. The food and drinks came out fast. The taiyaki was awesome in Nutella and Oreo - we ended up ordering 2 more. Dirty milk tea was also chef's kiss! My friends ordered a strawberry drink and the taro drink, and did have some complaints that it was overly sweet at 50% sweetness (shop recommended) - also if you have a texture sensitive, just note that the strawberry drink is much thicker than thin liquid and almost has a yogurty texture.

Square top peninsula bar to the left as you walk in and lounge area sofas and arm chairs to sit in groups to the right. Place is clean and just FYI it has one unisex bathroom and the place opens at 7 PM. This Friday night featured an appetizer menu, what I will call a munchies menu of tacos made by another vendor, and bottle cap bingo of all things. I tried the pecan bourbon old fashioned ($13) and found it to be good. I try to limit the add-ins somewhat and so I just stuck with Buffalo Trace on a large rock for the rest of the night. My wife had several mixed drinks that were in the $12 range. Matthias came up with a drink that was, per my wife, "sweet and strong." I thought maybe she was thinking of me when she ordered but she nixed that idea pretty quickly....LOL Mini-charcuterie ($12) I thought left something to be desired. Beef jerky added with just a toothpick of cured meats. Not sure how they fit three different types on there but they did and it was just enough to make you want more. Cheeses seemed to be basic run of the mill diced. Per my wife it was ok, but she would probably pass on ordering it again. It's not meant as an entree to be fair and there is a good portion as a whole, but just overly simple and a little light on proteins. I'd cut down the cheese and double the toothpick, also 86 that jerky stuff and probably have a decent plate. Maybe even through a couple extra strawberries on there. Two sisters sitting next to us ordered the artichoke and spinach dip. They said the dip was fine but the baguettes were way over-toasted (i.e. too dry) and that seems like an easy fix. Later in the evening during bingo I tried a couple of tacos. They are brought in and stored, reheated when ordered. Unfortunately it seems like it as the flour tortillas are quite soft and it just doesn't come out fresh. The relleno burrito is just a relleno wrapped in a flour tortilla; the potato and chorizo had my wife's approval and mine as well. Laura runs a good bar over there, and some of you may remember her from Torchy's down the road. Fair pours and prices commensurate for around the area. Bingo runs pretty quickly, even the blackouts and the organizer had a plinko game a la price is right style. Was a fun run down memory lane for me. In a bit of irony, we never ordered dessert, which is the main focus of this business during the week. The samples I saw looked pretty good and it seems like the bar is just a way to make use of the space off bakery hours which I can appreciate. To me though they are nearing that price range where I'd expect a little better from the kitchen for appetizers. About $120 was the overall tab which we capped with a 25% tip. Went home after having a good time but just felt they fell short on the food.
