When Lao\u2019s dessert selection failed to wow my mother and Cone was inexplicably closed it was my sister who piped up suggesting a Portland-esque food-window whose name she couldn\u2019t quite remember known for serving homemade pop-tarts, a quick search indicating suggesting \u201cInterurban\u201d to be the place and leading us up to Lincoln Park where a fifteen minute emergency-flasher \u2018parking space\u2019 in front of the now closed Charlie Trotter\u2019s landed us a variety of sweets ranging from classic to contemporary and delicious to dreadful. Friendly in service and largely focused on American kitchen classics such as cupcakes and whoopee pies it was in these items that the small bakery excelled, the cakes moist and the frostings flavorful, and moving onward to the chilled bread pudding which was subsequently warmed in the microwave the trend continued, the texture dense but smooth with sweet and salty in admirable balance, though the bacon was decidedly limp. Moving next to the pop tarts, more \u2018toaster strudel\u2019 and soft than toasty and crisp both of the items would prove amply fruity if not particularly rave-worthy and rounding out the selections with an upside down cake that tasted more like sugar than pineapple it was the spongy, flavorless canele that truly appalled \u2013 a veritable disaster on all fronts and particularly when compared to the textbook version at Dillman\u2019s just 6 hours earlier.<\/p>\n
