Overrated places in Dallas

Do you ever wonder why some places are ranked so high?  Here is my ranking of my top two most overrated places in Dallas for dessert.

Don't get this either

They are supposed to be known for their desserts, but the two cakes I ordered were extremely dry and unrefined.  I always liken these experiences to the grocery store cake, but in this case, it was worse.  It was like picked-over-two-days-old birthday cake at the office.


Chocolate Layer Cake
Don't get me wrong, the food at Celebration Restaurant tastes like home cooking, but the dessert tastes like home cooking from the Easy Bake oven.  Their chocolate layer cake tastes like when I make it from a box, and the strawberry shortcake was unmemorable (sweet but you could better spend those calories on a few Twix bars).  I could have experienced the same brownie sundae taste at home with brownie mix and some Bluebell ice cream.
