LDC Kitchen + Coffee
Picking Out a V-Day Sweet is No Big Feat When it’s an LDC Treat
Valentine’s Day can feel so impersonal, so why not gather all of LDC Kitchen + Coffee’s quirky, homemade desserts and make your partner the perfect hamper – or just treat yourself because you love you like Kanye loves Kanye!
Available at all LDC outlets across the city, the Valentine’s Day milk chocolate bars (AED 12) come wrapped in neon pink foil and sleeved with a llama holding a heart… because no one could ever resist a ‘llamantine’.
Glossy raspberry dream may sound like a new lip shade, but it’s the apt description for the Valentine’s eclairs (AED 15). Freshly baked from scratch, the French-inspired pastry blankets an indulgent raspberry mousse, and is drizzled in white chocolate and berry crunch, making it lip-smacking delicious (so you probably want to keep this one all to yourself).
If there was ever a perfect pair, it would be cherry and coffee. The Cherry Macchiato (AED 22 hot or AED 24 iced) uses ethically sourced premium coffee and tastes like love in a to-go cup so you can sip on romance throughout the day.
And of course, it wouldn’t be Valentine’s Day if you didn’t go breaking hearts. LDC’s Heart Mess (AED 45) is layered with fresh berries tossed in a strawberry reduction, cheesecake mousse, hazelnut crumble and topped with a crispy, heart-shaped meringue. Not your average Eton Mess, this twist on the classic British dessert is only available at LDC’s new One JLT location and is the perfect double agent- be it to end the day on a sweet note or break hearts and eat your heart out.
LDC Kitchen + Coffee at One JLT is open seven days a week from 7am to 12 midnight and until 1am during the weekends.
