20 Must-Have Desserts in Houston

"This restaurant from chef Justin Yu brings a relaxed fine dining experience to Downtown’s Northside. Its menu is small but mighty, featuring a warm strawberry butter cake that is worth saving room for. The warmth of the dessert is contrasted with a bed of cold cardamom cream, making each bite a perfect one." - Brittany Britto Garley, Megha McSwain
