Located in back of the Spring Mountain plaza housing Viet Noodle IS SWEET has received a fair bit of praise ever since opening doors in the middle of 2015, and with several desserts served to compliment a broad-ranging menu of coffee and teas the cozy spot shows well for an Locals-only sort of spot, though prices are often comparable to the likes of Bouchon on Jean-Philippe.<\/p>\n

Open late and offering free WiFi, the staff exceedingly pleasant if not particularly pressed for pace, those visiting IS SWEET are likely to be tempted by several cute confections in addition to honey toast and waffles made-to-order, the quoted preparation time of fifteen minutes proving a low-ball estimate as a lone barrista and man in the kitchen struggled with orders despite only a half-dozen total guests.<\/p>\n

Levied a tab of $25.57 for four desserts and tap water before adding a tip, a tasting of IS SWEET began with a small slice of British favorite Banoffie Pie, the flavor of fruit largely overwhelming the toffee amidst the creamy base as drizzles of chocolate and caramel further compromised the experience, a block of honey toast proving far better crafted with a base price of $4.00 boosted by a $1.00 dollop of Vanilla pudding plus $1.25 for ice cream without which the toasted bread would seem to be a waste.<\/p>\n

Taking two more treats for home, the Nutella Mousse apparently carrying a premium entirely as a result of the artistry involved, suffice it to say that at a cost of $6 the light dessert was most certainly not worth a buck-fifty a bite, the far better taste and value found in a ‘coffee cake’ that defied convention, the hefty notes of cinnamon smoothed by creamy frosting while honey glazed nuts added texture and finesse traditionally reserved to fine-dining and plated sweets.<\/p>\n

TWO AND A HALF STARS: Unfortunately a bit too precious for its own good, even the honey toast which seems like a good deal turning out to be a bit pricey when accounting for portion after adding ice cream, IS SWEET is perhaps best visited with a group intent on sharing and sampling, though smallish portions may even make that a stretch.<\/p>\n

\"DSC06353\"

RECOMMENDED: Coffee Cake, Honey Toast (if only for the degree of customization offered.)<\/p>\n

AVOID: Nutella Mousse, arriving during peak times.<\/p>\n

\"DSC06354\"

TIP: Offering 10% off beverages for Yelp Check-Ins. Open 11am till Midnight seven days a week.<\/p>\n

WHAT THE STARS MEAN: 5 World Class, 4 Excellent, 3 Good, 2 Fair, 1 Poor<\/p>\n
