one shot: Profiteroles at Cafe Rabelais

December 26, 2013 By: Mai Truong Category: Cafes, French, Houston, One shot, sweet snacks and desserts

Even if you don’t like anything at Cafe Rabelais (I didn’t), this mini-mountain of profiteroles loaded with ice cream is still as resistible as a pool in the summer, and worth every second you spend with it too.

To top, it’s HUGE. THREE orange-size puffs, for only $6.50! We thought it was going to be just one cream puff, you know, like how desserts are usually portioned… but no, the pastry chef has a heart of gold. Next time I’m at Rive Village, I’ll swing by for a profiterole recharge. 😉

Sidney and the cream puffs. See how big this dessert is?

Houston, TX 77005

Now… a few more shots of Rabelais’ foods, but the menu varies daily and is only written on the blackboard so we might never see these dishes again:

Pate de campagne - meaty and well seasoned.

"Roasted leg of lamb with raspberry demi" - Well, I don't like the smell of lamb and this one hasn't changed that.

Lemon sole meuniere - too much lemongrass, lemon and salt, but so much more edible than the lamb.

Chocolate pie - basically the chocolate mousse on a nut crust.

“Fondant au Chocolat sur Croute de Noix” – basically the chocolate mousse on a nut crust.

By the way, the service is just plain negligence. But if you come only for the profiteroles, you won’t see the waitress enough to notice the service anyway. 😉

  14. Along with everything which appears to be building within this subject material, your viewpoints are generally rather stimulating. Nonetheless, I beg your pardon, but I do not subscribe to your entire idea, all be it stimulating none the less. It looks to everybody that your comments are actually not completely rationalized and in simple fact you are yourself not completely certain of the argument. In any case I did take pleasure in reading it.
