Cinnamon Apple Dessert
When I was at the Range Cafe (taking the "carp" photo), I ordered only one thing - their "signature" apple upside down tart with cinnamon ice cream. It is not a tart tatin - there is no caramel on top of the apples. However, here is what it looks like:

Ignore the whipped cream and woefully out of season strawberry.... instead look at the huge mound of baked apples on top of a pastry crust, and the melting cinnamon ice cream pooling in the dish.... mmmmm.
Yes, it was good. Unfortunately, it was not great. I was expecting a little bit more, since this dessert is so "famous" and all. On my *first* try I made far better cinnamon ice cream than their house recipe. Possibly because I used enough cinnamon to actually taste it, rather than just have an allusion to cinnamonny-ness? All in all, I have had far worse desserts, but I think I will keep on looking for a great tart tatin in the future, and just keep making my own cinnamon ice cream.
