Finale

Finale is a mostly-dessert restaurant in the Park Plaza building (at the far end from where Arisia is held, about .9 miles from the Hynes and Sheraton). It usually serves about 12 seriously dangerous desserts; recent offerings included molten chocolate cake, strawberry-rhubarb tart, and the Chocolate Indulgence (5-part assortment). They also serve "preludes" (e.g. salads, pate, antipasti, specialty pizza, spring rolls); one or two of these and a dessert make up a reasonable meal. $8-11 for preludes, $8-17 for desserts; full license (and recommendations to go with everything on the menu). Open until midnight Thursday through Saturday.
