Pre-dessert
This palate cleanser is often a bright, refreshing sorbet-style dish, sometimes featuring unique fruit and vegetable combinations.
"The pre-dessert was genuinely excellent. It was a fruit-and-vegetable sorbet-style palate cleanser that tasted bright, refreshing, and thoughtful. It was the one dish that felt fully realized."
