^^ Seconded.

Poole's always has something delicious for dessert. The milkshakes at Chuck are awesome. The dessert empanadas at Calavera are A++. Goodberry's is one of my favorites for ice cream.

Now that I think about it though my favorite places for dessert all seem to be in Durham lol.

i'm surprised there's a thread of this nature that synapse hasn't covered yet.

no rice pudding is a salad.

or, obviously rice pudding is not a desert. it is a dessert.

I used to love Goodberry's. I went there yesterday, and had the worst strawberry milkshake of my life. Tasted like there was no ice cream in it at all, straight up milk and strawberry chunks.

6/7/2012 1:14:18 PM

I've never had their milkshakes. I always get their concretes. If you want an amazing strawberry shake you should head to Chuck's!

6/7/2012 1:24:12 PM

^^^Ah, Sugarland. Good call. Gelato, cupcakes, and good coffee.

6/8/2012 10:13:39 AM

yeah, goodberry's should be limited to concretes

6/8/2012 12:56:10 PM

If this were in chit chat I would respond DEEEZZZZ NUTS!!!

But since it's not, I'm going with the popular choice of Hayes Barton...just had some cake from there last weekend.

Haha. I thought this too just b/c it seems like he's been on a thread making craze lately.

I'm a big fan of the chocolate chess pie at Angus Barn.

i'm surprised vinylbandit hasn't said anything snobby in here yet

6/8/2012 7:44:33 PM

There's a bagel shop by the Trader Joe's in Cary that sells Hayes Barton desserts for those not near Five Points.

Angus Barn had this apple cobbler that was served in a hot skillet with ice cream on top. hot damn was that good

Hayes Barton Chocolate Pecan Pie

6/11/2012 10:45:15 PM

I wanted to add:

Chuck's milkshakes
Beasley's chess pie and other desserts
Al-Madina Bakery (chocolate croissants all the way, but baklava and other Middle Eastern desserts)
CupAJoe (still love their scones and muffins)

6/11/2012 11:30:02 PM

I will have to check out Hayes Barton cafe after reading this thread. Never been there before and I've lived in the area for 25+ yrs

6/11/2012 11:57:06 PM

Banana's Foster at Winston's was on point the one time I had it.

I usually elect to hit up Maggie Moo's for ice cream/milkshake over Goodberry's or Coldstone.

Is that the one in Mission Valley? If so the one time I went in there and got something the entire place smelled like someone had died and the cookies I bought had rancid fat in them. I took one bite, went , and threw the rest out. If that's not where you're talking about, carry on

For Baklava, Basmas, other pastries that start with B, and Rice Pudding, one needs to look no further than Neomonde.

[Edited on June 12, 2012 at 10:11 AM. Reason : Turkish Delight does have some good Baklava too, upon reflection. And the building is purple.]

6/12/2012 10:10:43 AM

In September you have to hit up the Greek Festival for that baked pudding thing they sell. So good. The doughnuts paired with the Greek coffee is also A++.
