Spot Dessert Bar Description:
Set amidst the Asian restaurant clutter that is St. Mark's Place, Spot is tucked in a subterranean spot that would be easy to miss. Which would be a shame because this dessert bar really does hit the mark. Pichet Ong, who has logged time as pastry chef at several Jean-Georges Vongerichten restaurants and has manned his own sweet and savory restaurant, the now closed P*ong, rules over this all-dessert bar in the East Village. The menu boasts some Ong creative classics, including several Ovaltine concoctions, but what really hits the, um, spot is the layered tastes of the chocolate banana pudding and the white miso semifreddo. We also suggest the jackfruit cake, complete with coconut and rum toffee; it's made even better with the surprise basil seed. Free wi-fi and plenty of good Thai coffee and tea drinks inspire lingering at this handsome wood-clad snack spot.
