More Nectar Less Chocolate

I’ve blogged about this place before, and I am going to do it again?
Why?
Because a great place deserves a little more attention.
To steal from a line from a review written about Nectar Desserts – Nectar Desserts is Raising the Chocolate Bar.
Actually, it doesn’t just raise the Chocolate Bar – it takes the Chocolate Bar out back, beats it with a stick and asks it who’s boss!
When going head to head with other dessert bars in Calgary, Nectar Desserts obliterates the competition.
Why?
Because they have class, style, service, and amazing GF options. You can eat in, you can take out, you can do both in the same night.
The staff is so knowledgeable and helpful. They know what they are talking about and that only helps instill a sense of trust and security when ordering and eating. My notable favourite is a server that I will call “Scrumptious”. I choose to call him that for a number of reasons: 1. I don’t like to publish names. 2. He’s the cutesiest morsel of awesome – it’s okay Fiance, I think you’re a cute morsel of awesome as well. 3. His recommendation from the menu was so scrumptious that I had to hold back my desire to squeal with excitement.
No matter who you’re server is, I can guarantee that you will be impressed. They all know their stuff and they all truly care about your health. Going to Nectar is like a hug for your stomach, and a hug for your soul.
My recommendations are:
- Nectar Macarons
- Pavlova
- GF Chocolate Cake
- Fiance loves the: Chocolate Experience.
**Please remember to mention your dietary restrictions. They will need to modify the desserts slightly to accomodate you. They won’t mind, and they will take you very seriously; so feel free to just sit down and ask them what they recommend today for a celiac in need of dessert**

It helps of course to have a “hot server”, but they do have such a fantastic presentation of food, I’d eat it even if served by a monkey.
Their plates look almost like a painter’s canvas at times, too pretty to eat.
But eat you must, as the flavors are prime.
Weighing in north of average though, my body could use bigger portions.
Sorry, when it comes to sugar, no false moderation for me.

I agree – to all of it! It took all my energy not to go at my plate with two spoons and a stopwatch to record my speed! Life is too short for moderation!
