Milk Bar

Had to come full circle and follow up Noodle Bar with Milk Bar...

MilkBar comes to Malibu

Plain 'n simple: Marisa is theeee sweetest. Look at what she sent right to my doorstep in Malibu. Am I lucky, or what? These precious MilkBar treats traveled a long way to get into my belly, and I appreciate every single inch of the journey they took. I told Marisa that she's like the long distance boyfriend from New York that I never had... Thanks, girl! See you in a few?! :)

Coffee Milk

Milk Bar was a repeat offender... What I returned for wasn't the Crack Pie or the Compost Cookie, it was the coffee milk! Marisa was telling me that they were known for their cereal milk; bottled milk that tastes like the leftover milk in your deep bowl of cereal each morning. Since I was so super full from all the Momofuku that night, I was getting the bottled milk to go for the next morning. When I saw the cereal milk, strawberry milk and coffee milk in the display, I would've been cheating on myself if I didn't pick coffee. I love coffee flavored everything! This coffee milk is the new coffee, for me at least. [Hehe] I want to find some natural coffee flavored syrup around here to mimic my love for Milk Bar's coffee milk. Ahhh I can't wait to go back ;)

Returning again for another coffee -milk- fix

Momofuku Milk Bar

Directly after dinner at Noodle Bar, we bee lined it over to Milk Bar - the dessert arm of the Momofuku empire. They sell quirky and creative desserts that are shockingly delicious.

Marisa pointed me in the direction of choosing two signature items: Crack Pie and Compost Cookie. Man, the crack pie was so sweet my teeth were already shaking before I took a bite! Next time, I ought to choose more of a chocolate-based pie. The Compost cookie surprised me, I enjoyed it. All the crave-alicious notes [chocolate, sweet, salty] are in this one cookie. We also got soft serve ice-cream. The week before, Milk Bar introduced its newest flavor combo: Red Velvet and Cream Cheese Icing. I got really excited when I knew I'd be there to try it! To our disappointment, the cream cheese icing was outta juice :( We wanted to swirl both flavors for the "real" red velvet experience... However, I thought the red velvet was good alone; I could taste the light Southern chocolate cake in soft serve form. No matter how much we ate for dinner, we still saved room for dessert!

Red Velvet Soft Serve

Crack Pie - toasted oat crust, gooey butter filling
