Dessert Bliss

And now time for something sweet. And not just sweet as in totally cool, but sweet as in pure magical deliciousness: dessert! The best place to find dessert in Minneapolis? Hands down, Zeno in Uptown. Zeno says they are a “triumph over blandness” and they’re undoubtedly correct. Zeno’s menu is chock full of exquisite desserts and a huge variety of coffee and wine.

Zeno is the place to be if your blood sugar plummets dangerously low and you’re feeling the need to bypass food that’s actually good for you. Imagine a big creamy piece of cheesecake with raspberries and white chocolate drizzled on top. Crème brulee flame-torched right in front of you. Espresso hazelnut chocolate brownie paired with Kona-infused ice cream. Seriously, the desserts are awesome. Everyone around you will be reduced to Meg Ryan-esque orgasmic moans of pleasure.

Zeno not only has indulgent desserts, the ambiance is also great. It’s this mod, airy place with floor to ceiling glass walls on two sides, perfect for watching the hipsters tug up their skinny jeans and give the stink eye to the McDonalds across the street.
