Guide Review - Rice To Riches
While 24 flavors of rice pudding may be difficult to imagine, Rice To Riches offers just that. Single portions are generous enough for two, if a little pricey at $4.50, but they'll happily put two different flavors in the slickly designed reusable packaging. Personally, I've found the fruit flavors to be less pleasing than the other choices, with Endangered Maple accented with blueberries and Marscapone with cherries to be personal favorites. Cinnamon Sling comes closest to what you might normally define as rice pudding -- complete with raisins. Don't hesitate to ask for a taste. A great stop after a pie at Lombardi's (it's across the street), and the creamy puddings in creative flavors may just make a rice pudding lover out of a skeptic.
