Neighborhood Crawl: Where to Eat on Franklin Avenue in Crown Heights
Dessert
The crazy adorable ice cream parlor/sweets shop, The Candy Rush, would have been a no-brainer dessert choice for a food crawl on Franklin Avenue. Sadly, it shuttered in January, after less than two years in business. So either stick with Mayfield, for plated treats like apple upside down cake and lemon cheesecake, or move on to our last stop, The Crown Inn, for a simple panna cotta (choose vanilla, chocolate or ginger), or a particularly dessert-y cocktail (the Snow Glow, with strawberry and pineapple-infused pisco and elderflower liquor, or the Candelit, with Irish whiskey, Lillet Blanc, orange liquor and bitters).
