Retro Dessert Classics

By Allison Austin Scheff
ShareThis

Most Bodacious Bananas Foster:Bananas Foster at Luau Polynesian Lounge ($7.50)
This version of the classic slips past the competition with the addition of lemon and orange juices to the sauce, plus there’s a choice of vanilla or coconut ice cream. (Coconut. No contest.) Finish-flamed at the table with 151 rum.

Best Dessert Fit for Royalty: Cherries jubilee at El Gaucho ($9)
Reportedly created for Queen Victoria’s jubilee by Escoffier, this rendition of the flamed-tableside dessert is made with Bing cherries, a sweet-tart sauce of brandy, triple sec, orange curaçao, sugar and lemon, all spooned over vanilla ice cream.
 
Best Deconstructed Apple Pie: Hot apple pie at Metropolitan Grill ($18.95)
Served in gargantuan portions, this hot apple pie starts with crisp Granny Smith slices, expertly flambéed tableside with butter, brown sugar, booze and spices, then poured over vanilla ice cream, a cookie “crust,” and drenched with caramel. Yowza.
 
Most Dramatic Pyrotechnical Display: Emerald City Volcano (baked Alaska) at Waterfront Seafood Grill ($25)
Only served after sunset, the Emerald City Volcano lights up the dining room like a blue-ribbon science experiment. Molded around chocolate–Grand Marnier ice cream, the meringue “explodes” and sparkles on its tableside tray, thanks to flaming cherry brandy expertly drizzled from above.
