I was just filling out one of those forwarded email survey questionnaires and one question asked me to name my favorite dessert. I have so many favorite desserts, and I thought about the creme brulee we ordered at the UVA Bar last nite. And then it hit me. The menu said it was a vanilla chocolate swirl creme brulee, which is what fascinated me so much because I wanted to see how they did dual-flavor swirl. There was no chocolate! There was no swirl! It was just your usual vanilla creme brulee with the caramelized sugar cap with a sliced strawberry and a mint sprig for garnish.

I have never had anything negative to say about this place before, but now, I was MISLED!

The only remedy, of course, is to start my search for an actual swirl creme brulee as soon as possible, eating all creme brulees in my path until I find the right one to balance out not having my expectations met.
