#14 Eat out at 10 new places (8/10): The Chocolate Mousse

There's a new place in town!  The Chocolate Mousse.  And it's a PIE BAR!  The original one is in Lubbock, Texas, and the owner of this one asked if he could make one in Utah...so I guess it's now a franchise.  Only two in the world, and one's in Provo!

The idea is this: mousse pies instead of ice cream.  So they scoop pie filling and sprinkle "crust" (oreos, graham crackers, nilla wafer and pecan) onto it.  They serve them in glasses.

The whole place has a swanky 1930s feel...kind of like a speak easy.  It looks like a really nice bar.  They really nailed the decor in the Provo one.  There aren't any pics online yet, so a peak into the Lubbock location will give you an idea:


The menu is simple.  A "pie bite" (one crust and one scoop of pie), a "pie fait" (double that), a dish where you can sample 6 types, and a "pie wich" (scoop of pie in between graham crackers).


Loved the decor.  Loved the unique idea.  But I did think they could spend a little more for quality ingredients to make it taste really good for the price they charged.  Overall, it was a great girl date.  :)
