Recommendations
"Desserts come straight from Minetta's dinner menu, excellent if not adventurous classics: a Coconut Layer Cake, with crème fraîche pastry cream that kept it moist and tangy and therefore many times better than your average coconut cake."
"This one was moist, with a tender crumb, and tasted like coconut on steroids."
"My guilty confession for returning to Minetta is that it offers the best dessert in all McNallyland: a moist, uncomplicated, blessedly lemon curd-free coconut cake."
"We gave ourselves some time to catch our breath and then ordered the coconut cake, surprisingly light and a nice sweet counterpoint to such a savory meal."
"A night that starts with a show and ends with a coconut cake on Minetta Lane should pretty much cure even the worst Sunday night blues."
"I am not the biggest fan of coconut, but I have to say that it was delicious!"
"With fresh coconut in the cream and toasted coconut on top to make it extra coconutty, and a nice, balanced amount of sweetness. There are rumors of rum being added to the cake, which would explain how moist it was."
