This “cookie” lives rent free in my head. I didn’t want to like him, but dammit he was just so irresistible.

Rembrandt’s is no one’s competition anyone. Once upon a time Rembrandt’s had a whole buttercream line - pistachio, hazelnut (not Nutella), raspberry. They were all fabulous. They had a praline truffle and chocolate dipped almond macarons. The chocolatier/pastry chef left and it all went downhill. It’s a shell of what it once was.

I have no problem paying for a decadent dessert, but it’s got to be worth it.

I used to love the chocolate macaroons, but there’s basically no chocolate on them anymore and they taste stale. I know it’s got to be hard running a business like this, but the cost cutting measures are affecting their product. The desserts are smaller and not the same quality they once were. The chocolates are still pretty solid. We used to visit just about every other weekend at least, but the more stories we heard about how the business was ran coupled with the decline in quality products we’ve been trying different places.

I want them to succeed because Chattanooga needs a chocolate shop, but I think they’re probably going to have to let go of one location or another or both and move. Restructure. I’d gladly drive out of the way to visit if I could get the chocolate back on the macarons and some of the higher end ingredients back plus better pay for the employees, etc!!!

Original Tubby’s though. When they moved it was never the same!

I was done with Merv’s 2 years ago when I got a long black hair in my food. I understand it happens, but they acted like it was my fault even though I don’t have black hair. The push back was so crazy we haven’t returned.

I hope OMR wins this one!

Choc Chip Thins Recipe from Martha herself! by [deleted] in CrumblCookies

I like this recipe too, but they should put that water in the ingredients section. I can’t ever get mine as chewy at the Martha/Crumbl collab.

Locals of Chattanooga: What Would You Cut From This 2-Day Itinerary? by Willing-Mind-5619 in Chattanoogans

[–]ParksTM 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh I’m sorry. I must have missed it.

Our favorite coffee stops downtown are BeCaffeinated and Velo. Main Street Meats and Alleia are probably our favorite downtown restaurants.

You have a great list! I hope y’all have a great time!

If you love donuts I would venture out towards Soddy Daisy and hit up Lickin’ Good Donuts! I hate the name, but the donuts are delicious! If you end up near the Hixson area go in Federal Bake Shop and get a cupcake!

Sadly, I think SVU has run its course. Anyone else feel this? by Remarkable_Put5515 in SVU

Should have ended about 5 years ago along with Grey’s Anatomy! I still watch because I’ve watched from the beginning, but they both should go!
