Rate and Write a Review Mixing together her Japanese heritage, French Culinary Institute education and heavyweight influences like Gramercy Tavern's Tom Colicchio, Chika Tillman brings a sushi-style dessert bar to life. Self-proclaimed as the first of its kind in New York City, ChikaLicious (pronounced chee-kah-lish-es) sweetens the East Village with its sophisticated, upscale dessert-only menu. Wine parings are suggested for each item, and there are also organic coffee and tea accompaniments. Minimalism is not a strong enough word to convey the eatery's stark white interior, which is devoid of any decorative accents. The white serves as a fittingly subservient backdrop to the diva desserts, which boast vivid hues, like blackberry compote atop chocolate caba au rhum. The best seat is at the bar where patrons can watch their handcrafted desserts take shape before their widening eyes. For serious dessert aficionados, the three-course prix fixe menu, which includes an 'amuse' (appetizer), entree dessert and assorted petit fours definitely takes the cake. -- Ashley Lederer
