Why Metropolitan Grill's Espresso Sundae is Worth It

In our book, enjoying ice cream is a year-round sport. There’s no cozier spot to indulge this fall and winter than under the dim mood lighting at Metropolitan Grill (2931 E. Battlefield Rd., Springfield). They recently added some new additions to the dessert menu, one of which is an espresso sundae served in a martini glass. The scoop of creamy espresso ice cream sits beside a generous helping of whipped cream with a sprinkle of raw sugar and a few thoughtfully placed berries. But it’s the Luxardo reduction sauce, made with Maraschino cherries, that makes this dessert one that you won’t really want to share. Make sure you curate each bite perfectly, with each of the components present on the spoonful.
