(B)eating the Kitchen Sink

Hello all! Yesterday was another great day here at the most magical place on Earth! But there's only one thing I need to share with you: The Kitchen Sink.

The Kitchen Sink is a legendary dessert at Beaches and Cream, a restaurant at the Yacht and Beach Club. It takes the old saying "Everything but the kitchen sink" and changes it around to "Everything AND the kitchen sink". Here are the ingredients, which are literally put into a small "kitchen sink".

• ½ cup fudge topping, warmed
• ½ cup butterscotch topping, warmed
• ½ cup peanut butter topping, warmed
• 1 medium banana, sliced in 1/2 –inch slices
• 1 cinnamon spice cupcake (2 ½ x 1 ¼-inch), quartered
• 1 angel food cupcake (3 x 1 ½-inch), quartered
• 2 4-oz. scoops vanilla ice cream
• 2 4-oz. scoops chocolate ice cream
• 2 4-oz. scoops strawberry ice cream
• 1 4-oz. scoop mint chocolate chip ice cream
• 1 4-oz. scoop coffee ice cream
• 3 tablespoons chocolate syrup
• ¼ cup marshmallow crème
• ¼ cup strawberry topping
• ¼ cup pineapple topping
• 1 14-oz can dairy whipped topping
• 1 brownie (6-inch x 6-inch), quartered
• 1 regular-sized (2 ounce) candy bar, quartered
• 4 chocolate cookies with cream filling
• 1 tablespoon sliced toasted almonds
• 1 tablespoon dark and white chocolate shavings
• 1 tablespoon chocolate cookies with cream filling, crushed
• 1 tablespoon chopped jellied orange slices (approximately 2 large slices)
• 1 tablespoon milk chocolate chip morsels
• 1 tablespoon peanut butter chip morsels
• 1 tablespoon chocolate sprinkles
• 1 tablespoon rainbow sprinkles
• ½ cup drained maraschino cherries

Making the experience all the better, they flip on bright flashing lights in the restaurant as they bring out this colossal dessert! We had to wait half an hour just to get into the restaurant and once we got in, we witnessed around four or five other Kitchen Sink's being presented to other smiling Guests. The menu says that it serves four, but we brought along one more just in case. Every time the lights began to flash, we all would excitedly look around, only to be disappointed when another table received what we believed to be our cherished treat.

                                                         Finally, we got it.

                                                           It was beautiful.

                                                             We finished it all.

It was everything we could have hoped for. We left with full stomachs and a great experience.

See ya,

P.W.
