I’ve tried both and overall I like Sprinkles better but the Cupcakery does have some tasty flavors. I especially like their version of an almond joy (forget the name) and the vanilla cake with dark chocolate frosting. The...

I think you’ll have a fabulous time, as I recently did. Have reservations for next Friday again actually. The last time I was there, I had a kir royale to start. Fairly good standby; I’m sorry I don’t recall how...

to a Kir, but made with different (more subtle) liqueurs, like almond, or blackberry (mure), blueberry (myrtle) - when offered an aperitif always worth asking what their house one is. My personal preference is to see if they have...

I have a can of gooseberries in syrup. Any suggestions?

I just got some delicious Creme de Cassis in Ile d’Orleans, Quebec. Apart from Kir/Royale, what are your favorite drinks with cassis?

/or kir royales, all for $38 not including tax and tip.

My wife’s favorite restaurant in Paris. Quite formal, so wear your best, coat & tie etc. The 75 euro luncheon prix-fixe is a great deal; otherwise plan on a minimum of 200E w/ wine & Kir Royale per person. Buy one of the...

, sausage, beans, mushrooms, 2 eggs, a grilled tomato, and toast. Each comes with a free bloody mary, kir royale, or mimosa. Half King charges $13 for this platter. First, let me say that the black and white pudding was delicious...

Oh, wow – I never thought of plum sorbet! Thanks for this suggestion. One question, though: By "kir", do you mean the creme de cassis liqueur that goes in a Kir or Kir Royale? If so, I’m in luck – I have a...

and not overwelming. They make a delicious Kir Royale. Next time we’ll just stick to 2 small plates and maybe salad. (Too much food.)

and offer us a kir royal. If you have any chance to go over there tell the owner I recomanded this place they gonna take care of you.

, etc. It wasn’t that busy either. Also, we got a table near the back along the east wall which was blasted by a base heater and somewhat noisy by the kitchen and stair. When I go again, I’ll try to sit upstairs. With...

Had tea (tho' we did not opt for the “power” variety) at the Bristol last month, and vaguely remember the standard tea being about $24, probably ~$34 with champagne/kir royale. Did like the pots of tea, served with...

for the *** crowd. We spent under $200 per person with a modest bottle of wine and Kir Royale aperitifs. L’Ambroisie sets the standard for perfection, in my book. If you opt for it, request a table in the front...
