S'mores and the city

GOOEY THE PUYALLUP >>>

Ah, summer. A chance to take a drive, pitch a tent and start a fire.  My summer nights of youth meant sitting on a log and enjoying the scent of burning wood mingling with the sweet aroma of roasting marshmallows. I peeled the golden outer crust off, ate it and stuck that marshmallow back in the flame for more - before grabbing chunks of chocolate bar and graham crackers for the final s'mores act.

As an adult, I still love a gooey delicious treat (probably more than the next girl). Especially where chocolate and fire are in play.

Dreamt up by HG Bistro owner Tim Hall, the Bistro S'more is a gooey creation worthy of a trip to Puyallup.

Presentation is half the fun, and this tabletop flaming treat is quite a lovely show. A buttery puff pastry filled with Lindor chocolate truffle and marshmallows is served on a cedar plank strewn with crushed graham cracker and Ghirardelli chocolate drizzle. A Bacardi 151-fueled flame gently scorches the cedar producing campfire smell and instant nostalgia. The dessert is definitely large enough to share. A scoop of vanilla bean ice cream sends my taste buds over the edge.

While you may not be able to go camping, in Puyallup you can have your s'more and eat it, too.
