With 3 locations around the city, the sweet treats at Naked Chocolate Cafe are easy to access. While the teas, hot coffee drinks, and hot chocolate (yum!) dominate the menu, there are some warm weather friendly items- like the frozen hot drinking chocolate.
The Creperie is very popular among the undergrads over at Temple. Both sweet and savory crepes are made to order and tons of fillings are available. They tend to get pretty busy during lunch time, but the boys inside the truck work fast. You can make your own crepe or chose from the combos available. Most of the combos are relatively normal. But not the “Alexander the Crepe”. This one is a special breed.

I have passed by Heung Fa Chun Sweet House countless times and decided it was time to stop in. They have a small menu of little snacks, many of which are desserts. The very first item on the menu is sweet do-fu dessert. That seemed harmless enough. And for $1.25, I had to grab one.
I finally caved and tried the cute little pastries at Garces Trading Co. They are sold as $6 for a 1/2 dozen, you can’t fool me, Garces- I know that means $1 for each tiny 2 bite pastry. But I had to have them, they were staring at me with there littleness and colorfulness and begging for me to try them all. Fresh ones were retrieved from the back and then packed up neatly in a brown box for me, which got me thinking that this would be a nice thing to bring to a dinner party. Or I could just eat them all myself.
