Your s'mores dessert is known for having uniquely flavored marshmallows. We recently started making our marshmallows in-house. This is the first time ever this dish has been changed since the grand opening of the restaurant. How long has it been on the menu? Since day one, in 2001. We sell about 50 to 70 every week.
