One of the best aspects having a 9 year old (and specifically mine) is an excuse and a partner to try every funky fun tasty odd bizarre food innovation NYC has to offer. She's an adventerous eater, loves NYC as much as I do, and will try anything at least once. However, sweets and desserts hold a special place in both our hearts.
