Creme Brulog

My brother in law and his fiance have a SUPER cool blog called Creme Brulog.  They live in Chicago, and spend countless hours traveling the city searching for the best Creme Brulee they can find :)  So they eat, and they critique the Brulee's according to various expectations.  And here is our take on there super fun blog :)

Today David and I got an early dinner with David's parents.  We went to this new place in Holland called Salt & Pepper.  Our dinners were quite delicious.  And then we noticed Creme Brulee on the desert menu.  So of COURSE we ordered it.  

Mary was at first very excited by the fruit on top.  She knew that was one thing Brian often looks for in a good Creme Brulee.  But she was disappointed by the strawberry.  She gave the Creme Brulee a 2.5 out of 5.

David thought that the sugary top was nice and crunchy, but was disappointed at the temperature of the custard.  It was cold.  He gave the Creme Brulee a 2 out of 5.

I agreed with the temperature being all wrong.  The top was somewhat warm from the crunchy sugar top, but the rest of cold.  BUT I was pleasantly surprised by the taste and texture of the custard.  It was quite delightful.  Plus, I just love deserts. So it gets a 3 out of 5 from me.

David's dad was going to order pie, but there was only pumpkin pie.  NOT his favorite.  So he opted out of desert.  Lucky for him... I had some Halloween candy in my purse.  And it just happened to be his favorite candy :)  I'm pretty sure he gave the candy a 5 out of 5.

And thus concludes the Stepping Stones version of Creme Brulog!
