French Toast 2.0

Me: "What is torrejas de bolillo"?
Waiter: "It's like french toast"
Me: "Um, ok"
***** 1 bit into the dessert *****
Me: "This is waaaaaaaaay better than french toast!"

This wonderful creation is a must have by anyone who goes to Chicago (okay - so now I've hyped it up too much".  Mercadito is actually a chain, so maybe this is offered in a city closer to you.  Here's the description of it on the menu: "creme anglaise soaked mexican bread, vanilla ice cream, cajeta sauce".  Again, it is the right amount of sweetness mixed with carbs.  And if it weren't for the fact that one of our guests double-dipped into the dessert, I would have finished it all off.  Sadly, when I went back recently, they were SOLD OUT of it.  Maybe that's the next business idea..."DessertReservations.com".
