Silly’s

Frankly, we’re kind of surprised that Silly’s hasn’t yet created a wrap that actually contains both a dessert and your choice of server to take home, so bountiful and lively are their choices. Every waiter and waitress there radiates so much ineffable goodness, you might buy a self-help book when you leave and try to discover what you haven’t figured out about living a happy life (in a restaurant, no less!). As for dessert, you are by now familiar with the milkshakes, dusted, crusted, or blended with pretzels and peanut butter and avocado and whatever else you can imagine. So let’s pay brief tribute to the other sweets, particularly the delicious and quite tall Princess Cake, which — little known fact — has inspired a song:

Unless you’re full of pleasure,/The city bestows what joy it knows./Here is the Princess Cake./Come here.

That was actually sung to one of us. Silly’s, you’re such a muse.
