Angus and I stopped for dessert after a performance at the Carlisle Theatre in Carlisle PA last night. They have a new cafe right next door called "The Green Room".
They had some interesting offerings. Chocolate sourdough cake with a topping of goat yogurt and fresh raspberries. Ricotta cakes with raspberry on the bottom (they must have gotten a good deal on fresh raspberries). And three kinds of homemade ice cream - vanilla, mint chocolate chip, and "lemon three spice", as well as fresh raspberry sorbet.
We got the raspberry sorbet - which was excellent - and the lemon three spice ice cream. Boy, was that fantastic. A vanilla base with lemon zest, cardamom, mace, and allspice. Just layers of flavor. The first bite was almost overwhelming but it sort of settled down. I eventually discovered that half a spoon of the sorbet with half a spooon of the lemon three spice was perfection :-)
