I went to lunch with my friend Dawn today. We had a great meal and always great conversation. I had a half turkey sandwich and a bowl of veggie soup. And then had some delicious chips!! This restaurant is known for their Banana Pudding. I have had it several times. Now this is not your ordinary B.Pudding. This is B.P. straight from the heavens. It really is not pudding at all. It's more of a thick cream cheesy, custard with chunks of bananas and vanilla wafers and to top it off it is served on a crispy sugary tortillia shell!! Can you say YUM!!! Anyway they were out of it by the time we asked. Now earlier in the lunch there was a 4top across from us and they ordered a coconut cake. They ordered two pieces I am assuming with the intention of each person getting half a piece... I had my back to the server as she is bringing the two plates out but Dawn did see. Dawn was in shock and quickly pointed out to me the size of each piece of cake.... I turned my head just in time to see the expression of each of the faces at the 4top as they also saw what was in store for them. I am not exaggerating one bit here ok.. Each piece was like a quarter of a cake. So a full size round cake is cut into fours and that is how they are served??? I was like "Wholy crap are you serious???" and the people of course were just as shocked. I thought about bringing my camera with me today and told myself I did not need to... Well I wish I would have so you can see just how large a piece of cake is here... So of course we ordered 1 and split it. I thought it was pretty good but could not finish all as the frosting got a bit sweet for me. But the cake itself was very good.. Ok I know we are responsible for what goes in our mouths but can we just stop and think for a minute.. Why in the world would any restaurant serve you a piece of cake that size?? I know now where to go if I am having a dinner party and need dessert.. It will feed that many..
