More on Momofuku Milk Bar

So much has been going on with Momofuku Milk Bar lately.  First, the release of their new soft serve flavors and my excitement over the Red Velvet Cake/Creme Cheese Frosting swirl, in addition to Carrot Cake and Cereal Milk flavors.  Then the elimination of their breakfast pork bun and relocation to the Bronx, where they will continue baking the goods until their new Williamsburg baking headquarters is ready.  And finally, another cameo on Gossip Girl last night (evidently, Blaire wanted to go there for dessert).  With all this action, I'm surprised I haven't posted sooner, but better late than never right?

Here's what This Little Piggy thinks:

- the Red Velvet Cake fro-yo tastes very little like its namesake.  It actually tastes a whole lot like chocolate.  At first I thought I was crazy, especially when my boyfriend's niece said it did in fact taste like the batter of red velvet cake, though recently my boyfriend confirmed it tastes like... chocolate.

- the Coffee Milk, which I had never tried before, was tasty.  It was creamy and didn't taste too strong of black coffee.  I would take this over the soft serve any day.

- the Compost Cookie... still a winner!  Rumor has it (confirmed 2 minutes ago) there is a similar recipe , if not the exact one, online.

- this last comment is dedicated to the party of three staked out at 1 of the 3 tables in the place: it is rude, to say the least, to bring your lap top (mac, of course) to one of the smallest and most crowded and popular locals in Manhattan and set up shop for 1 hr.+ to review your recent photos with friends.  Tx.

This Little Piggy gives the Compost Cookie and Coffee Milk four oinks.  Red Velvet Cake soft serve = two oinks.  Next flavor please.
