First Heartbreak

From our “First” menu at U.P. in July 2015, which celebrated all the different first memories in our lives, this dish captures the hot and cold moments of a first break-up, interpreted as our take on a Baked Alaska. Made with a beautiful flower constructed of meringue petals with a center of Rocky Road ice cream (a break-up must) with a touch of bergamot for that bittersweet edge, the real show-stopping moment is when the petals are flambéed tableside when a love note is lit on fire, causing the petals to slowly fall.
