Local Favorites lewes Oyster house ©Lewes Oyster House tOP Desserts DESSERTS lewes Oyster house , Lewes Chef Sean Corea’s dessert menu is seasonal, inspired, and shows his care for the entire dining experience. The French toast crème brûlée is a favorite, along with all their house-made ice creams. Delaware Bardea Food & Drink , Wilmington Bardea Food & Drink and Bardea Steak have been delivering on all things pastry since opening, thanks to the incredibly talented Amanda Bowers. Of course, the dessert is over-the-top delicious, but her savory treats incorporated throughout Chef Antimo’s menu are perhaps the most special. Empanadas, croquettes, bao buns, cheese-filled pop-tarts, and tartlets are just a few of our favorites. There’s also Bean by Bardea, where you can indulge in an array of morning treats from croissants and danishes to cronuts and cookies. My sister’s Fault , Milford These sisters are doing more than a few things right. Savory Puerto Rican-inspired sandwiches and SO MANY SWEETS! The menu features stunning, colorful cakes along with desserts ranging from tiramisu, flan, and cheesecakes to many more, including sugar-free and gluten-friendly options. the station on Kings ©Instagram/eat_drink_repeat Brandywine Brasserie , Wilmington Pastry Chef Kaila Faye Brenchi puts whimsical twists on classic desserts, like a Samoa-inspired baked Alaska and salted honey crème brûlée. Be sure to try her seasonal specials with the best local fruit of the moment. Our harvest , Fenwick Island The beignet feast and any seasonal fruit offering are always a sure bet, but the sticky toffee pudding stays on the menu year-round for a reason. Warm, gooey, and well-balanced with a big cold scoop of ice cream. It’s an indulgent, craveable dessert. gather alfajores , Rehoboth Beach Their shortbread cookies will be some of the best you’ve ever had in your life. Creamy, not too sweet, dulce de leche sandwiched between two buttery, melt-in-your-mouth cookies. They also make amazing supreme seasonal versions with fruit jam inside. the station on Kings , Lewes For the best quality and some of the most flavorful viennoiserie, cakes, tarts, macarons, and pastries, The Station on Kings is the place to go. Every treat is delicious and eye-catching. The cookies, despite their humble appearance, are perhaps the tastiest bites in the shop.
