One rushed afternoon in San Francisco, I took a bite of this croissant at Tartine Bakery, leaned back in my chair and thought: "How wonderful the world would be if there was a Tartine in every city."

August 27th, 2010 | Category: Ice Cream & Sorbet
Cereal what? That's right, ladies and gentlemen, the silky liquid you see above on the right is called cereal milk. And on the left is an ice cream made with this cereal-infused milk, sprinkled with caramelized cornflakes. I've seen it on David's blog and can't stop thinking about it ever since.
