RaR Bar:
Classic S’more
with a Twist
30-01 35TH AVE.,
LONG ISLAND CITY
718-729-9009
Quiet, unassuming and tucked
around the corner a block off of 31st
Street, I wouldn’t be surprised if you
didn’t know local wine bar Rèst-âü-
Ránt has a delicious s’more hidden on
their menu. Luckily, there’s still plenty
of summer (or fall, or winter — it’s on
the menu year-round!) left to rectify
that.
RaR’s s’more is slightly more than
meets the eye. Where Sanford’s
gets savory and Queens Comfort
gets weird, RaR gets sneaky. The
chocolate ganache is hiding some
infused Guinness stout in its prep,
and the graham cracker crust has
bits of pretzel mixed in, while the
thick, melted marshmallow blanket
enveloping the whole thing tucks it
all away under its pillowy, torch-fired
crust. It isn’t visually striking — but
dang if it isn’t a sensory experience to
take your breath away.
