Dessert Takes Center Stage
Helmed by Executive Pastry Chef Makenna Hale, Reverie transforms desserts into edible works of art. The menu features nature-inspired creations like “The Rainbow,” a vibrant journey through fruit, florals, and confections, as well as thematic desserts such as “The Sea,” “The Garden,” “The Hive,” and “The Moon.” Each dish plays with texture, color, and taste to deliver a sensory celebration.
Vaknin and Hale said, "Our vision is to elevate dessert beyond the expected, where senses are heightened and the palette uncovers a surprise with each bite. We are redefining what dessert can be—artful, immersive, and truly unforgettable."
