The blueberry, rooibos and ricotta cheese cake was a light and airy -- almost like bread pudding. It is served with a scoop of subtly sweet blueberry rooibos gelato.
We asked chef Hale if he was trying to kill us with this sundae; he laughed (notice that he did not deny it). The concoction is out of the mind of a mad dessert genius. He says it is a take on the banana split, but we're calling it the kitchen sink sundae. A fudge brownie, bananas, oatmeal raisin cookies, marshmallows, almonds, blueberries, strawberries -- coconut ice cream, cherry ice cream and vanilla ice cream filled the bowl and sent us over the edge.
