They weren't giving away boring, tiny samples. They were giving away full-size treats from some of the best bake-shops in New York. On top of that, there was no regulation on how many treats you could try. We were trepidatious about asking for more than one and spent the entire time in line trying to choose the single best dessert available, but it turned out they were happy to let us try everything! I'm not a cupcake gal, so I passed on Billy's Bakery (though my office pals were disappointed because they think Billy's is the city's best cupcake), but I did get a cup of Breyer's ice cream, two Godiva truffles, and a compost cookie from Momofuku Bakery and Milk Bar.
Momofuku's Milk Bar is 100%, hands down my absolute favorite dessert shop in the city. When it comes to sweet treats, it cant be topped. I couldn't believe I was able to walk away from this food truck with a full size compost cookie, which is filled with pretzels, potato chips, coffee, butterscotch, oats, and chocolate chips. It reminded me that I haven't had a Momofuku moment in quite a while and it is probably time I head down to the East Village for some crack pie, cereal milk, and cake truffles.
Top Chef, I recommend you do this before every episode.
