New dessert place in downtown Davis serves Thai toast, other sweet Asian treats
Mango sticky rice crepe, Hokkaido milk crepe cakes, and tea lattes are all sugary delectables at courtesy of a new dessert spot in Davis. Naya Dessert Cafe is serving the sweet goods at 620 Fourth St. in downtown Davis. The business specializes in Thai-inspired desserts and is the first and only location in the Sacramento area. The Davis location, which officially opened in October, offers a menu that includes cake, toast, crepes, ice cream, drinks and Bingsu, a creamy Korean shaved ice made from frozen milk and condensed milk. The business’s signature sweets are its Mango Tango Bingsu, Black Thai Tea crepe, Thai Tea crepe cake, and a chocolate lava cake with salted egg cream custard inside and served with vanilla ice cream and fresh strawberries. What truly separates Naya Dessert Cafe is its toast dessert. Unlike the traditional flat American toast, Thai toast is a thicker bread that towers over a scoop of ice cream and fresh fruit. With butter glazed on the bread’s edges, Thai toast is sweet, fluffy and served with a flavored cream drizzle. Toasts include: the “Kaya Toasted” with pandan sauce, coconut shaving, sliced banana and vanilla ice cream, the “Golden Toasted” with fresh strawberries,

My 5 Favorite Wineries Near Folsom
People ask me all the time where they should go wine tasting. After years exploring, tasting, pouring at winery events (will work for wine), and judging in the Foothill Wine Competition, I’ve narrowed it down to my five favorite wineries near Folsom. Each one does something no other winery around here does quite the same way, and together they cover five different wine regions, all within an easy drive of town. So, what do I look for in a winery? Yes, great wine is a must, but that’s not all. Hospitality, the setting, price, and events all come into play. All of these figured out how to deliver.

Are you an adventurous snacker? Superette, the petite, lovingly curated gourmet grocery on Riverside Blvd. in Upper Land Park, has just the thing for you. Owner Sophie Mosgrave has just launched Superette Provisions Club, a monthly subscription plan serving a carefully chosen selection of snackables to your hungrily awaiting palate. Superette carries a kaleidoscopic array of delectables, from tinned fish to gourmet cheeses to locally made pickles to high-end artisan chocolates. The Provisions Club will draw from the store’s full product mix. “The idea behind it is just giving people a regular occurrence of things that we love. There will be some exclusives or at least sneak peeks to things that we want to bring in, but wanted to have like an audience first for it. I think it’s a fun opportunity for folks to maybe try things that they wouldn’t have otherwise known to try, or maybe missed in the shop,” she said. For the inaugural collection, Mosgrave is debuting a new product that’s an extension of one of the shop’s core staples, Mama Teav’s Hot Chili Crisp . The new offering is the producer’s Extra Umami Hot Chili Crisp, which dials back some of the spice and pumps
