Black Pearl

[Mahi Waina]

We had lunch at Momma's Fish House last week and the Polynesian Black Pearl dessert was to die for! It was such a work of art, we hated to eat it.

This is the Mama's Fish House (http://www.mamasfishhouse.com/) on Maui? I guess the "Black Pearl" is their signature dessert, but reportedly isn't even mentioned on their menu.

Here's a friend of a friend's photo of what it looks like (http://www.flickr.com/photos/jozjozjoz/57013259/in/photostream/), with a description: "It's a chocolate sponge cake, topped with chocolate mousse, wrapped in chocolate ganache, dipped in fresh toasted coconut in a specially baked 'shell' cookie with chocolate, with a dollop of whip cream, on a bed of passion fruit and chocolate sauce."

I guess you'll have to go there yourself to find out what it tastes like!

I need a shot of insulin on the rocks after reading that description.... :eek:
