The last two locations have been seen on Chicago’s best dessert episodes. First up is Sabatinos, an old school restaurant with some of your classic favorites. Cherry jubilee and baked Alaska are just some of this restaurant’s specialties. If you didn’t know, Baked Alaska is one of the Italian restaurant’s specialties because it’s a dessert food that consists of ice cream and the restaurant’s famous pound cake topped with browned meringue … sounds delish.

The final dessert destination is The Purple Pig. If the eclectic title isn’t enough to grab your attention, the Magnificent Mile restaurant’s dessert menu should. The Purple Pig was also featured on the hit show, Chicago’s BEST Dessert list back in 2012, but are still well known to please your sweet senses. If you have a sweet tooth, please allow this sensational restaurant to solve that problem for you. The Sicilian iris, is the dessert to live by at this downtown Chicago eatery. A deep fried, brioche stuffed with ricotta cheese, chocolate chips and powdered sugar. It’s like heaven on earth when these flavors explode in your mouth. After an incredible meal, why not top it all off with an incredible dessert as well?
