Master Critic Review
B Sweet Dessert Bar (Sawtelle)
7.8
A Filipino-inflected dessert shop built around 40+ rotating flavors of warm bread pudding, with ube and pandan running through cheesecakes, halo halo, and grilled donut ice cream sandwiches. The counter-service format works as a post-ramen stop on Sawtelle, though the limited evening hours and occasional order mix-ups mean you should double-check your box before leaving.
Must-Try Dishes:
Ube Bread Pudding, Hot Bread Pudding Sampler, Ube Cheesecake
