This was baked fresh upon order and proved to be a comforting, hearty treat. I ended up sharing it as the portion's large.
Across the top was crunchy marzipan crumble which, once broken, revealed piping hot slices of syrupy American peaches. Those were really juicy and tasted wonderful with the housemade French vanilla ice-cream that came in its own little Florentine almond cookie bowl. The long stick of cinnamon twist was also nice to nibble on.
I was told that this dessert isn't always available as it's dependent on whether peaches are in season and if they are worthy enough. Otherwise, another type of fruit, like apples or blueberries, would be used as substitute.
Desserts at "The Bird Southern" are generally sweet, American-standard sweet. Which means if you are like me who can only handle that much of it, a cup of black coffee with no sugar is a necessary accompaniment.
