Cafe Latte

Sunset as we headed out.

A date night was in order, and we have been talking about heading down to Grand for the past week, so we figured tonight was time to get some good food and just hang out together. We both love Cafe Latte, but I have never had their pizza before, so we each ordered one, as well as dessert.

We ordered the pepperoni pizza (basil marinara sauce, pepperoni and mozzarella) and the special, which was the butternut squash pizza (Italian sausage with spinach, red onions and feta). The pepperoni was very good. I'm not a huge pepperoni pizza fan (I usually like a bit more to them), but this one was quite good. I especially noticed the sauce, as the basil marinara was very distinct and very good. The butternut squash pizza was terrific. The squash took the place of the sauce, with huge chunks of Italian sausage, and big pieces feta. The butternut squash was very mild in flavor, and we didn't notice it at first, but once you catch the flavor, it is more obvious and very well balanced.

No trip to Cafe Latte would be complete without some of their dessert. We ordered my fiance's favorite, the Tres Leches. It is out of this world. It is super, super moist, with very light frosting (almost like whipped cream). Really, it is amazing. If you have yet to try their dessert, you need to make it a point to go and try some. They have a huge selection of cakes, and the worst part is trying to decide on which one to get. We avoided this issue by getting another one to go. We chose the chip and chunks cheescake. As of the time of this post, we hadn't eaten it yet, however, the night is (relatively) young, so it may not make it to tomorrow.
