I am the head Pastry chef at Orso and the Brew House in Anchorage Alaska I have to change up the menu so I was thinking of putting on a dried cherry and almond tart with a brandied whip cream and a brown butter ganache so to do this I have to take a desert off the menu so what is it going to be the mascarpone dark chocolate cheese cake bomb or the espresso dark chocolate amaretto mousse??? I can not make up my mind so your help would be appreciated

Hard to go wrong with cheesecake.........

Mousse is a wonder and cake is good ... but never as good as mousse.
People can get pretty good cake anywhere. Keep the moose! It's an Alaskan tradition! |

I'd say get rid of the mousse, but that's only because it's expresso flavored. If it were just chocolate mousse, I'd keep that.

The cheesecake I would kept. It goes good with the Oatmeal Stout you serve. Along with the barley wine Traquair. By the way the spicy calamari is just grand indeed.

thanks I really like the calamari a lot the problem I am haveing with the cake and mousse is that they sell at about the same rate. oh an the mousse only has a little espresso in it just to enhance the dark chocolate I know the power of the dark chocolate

I like them both but like cheesecake more. I like to have a nice drink with it. Parings with wine and beer is better with the cheesecake I believe. Yes the calamari is one of the best I have tasted. Dark chocolate can be very over powering.
