After a long day of marching and rallying, I made the trek over to Highlevel Diner for supper. For my beverage, I did not want alcohol, and it was rather late in the day for coffee, so I opted for a chai latte. Smooth, creamy, and delicious it was. Just what I needed.

Dessert at Block 1912
The dessert tray at Block 1912 was just too beautiful to resist. The colourful assortment of cakes, tarts, and other delights made by Block 1912's baker drew us in.
I had a vanilla panna cotta with fruit. The panna cotta was delicate in flavour and very cold in the centre - I suspect it had been frozen after it was first made. The selection of fruit that surrounded it was varied and delicious, with the syrup mixing well with the custard.
The chocolate chili square was rich - and spicy. I tried just a corner of it and my mouth was aflame. I do not recommend this for the faint of heart, or taste buds. I suspect the burn would have overwhelmed me had I continued.
Chili at Wild Earth
I was desiring a mid-afternoon snack of something a little healthier than a dessert, so while I was at Wild Earth Bakery I had a small bowl of chili. This small bowl packed a punch - it was thick, full of meat and beans, and a rich tomato base. Definitely recommended for cool days and big appetites.

Butter Chicken "Panaani"
Naanolicious is becoming one of my "go-to" food places on Whyte Avenue. I unexpectedly ended up there for lunch and had a pressed naan sandwich, whimsically called a "panaani." The combination of the crispy naan bread with rich butter chicken on the inside satisfied by cravings for both. I would have appreciated a few more of the savoury Bombay potatoes and the salad was more of a garnish. Still, I really enjoy how Naanolicious presents Indian food in unique ways.
