Silky vanilla custard under a thin, crackly layer of torched caramelized sugar.

The Classic Creme Brulee is the most satisfying crack on our menu. We chill a rich vanilla custard until it is smooth and silky, then caramelize the sugar on top so it shatters like glass the moment your spoon breaks through. That contrast, cool creamy custard against warm crisp sugar, is why this dessert never goes out of style.

It is the elegant way to end a Prime Steak or Surf & Turf dinner, and a favorite for birthdays and celebrations at California Grill & Bar in Whittier. Save room, or split one for the table and fight politely over the last spoonful. Served daily, and it pairs beautifully with an espresso or cappuccino to close out the night.
