Sticky toffee pudding at 4th and Swift

“Decadent” is one of those foodie food words that has become painfully overused. But 4th and Swift’s cult menu item, a warm bowl of sticky toffee pudding, is a textbook example of the D-word. The dense piece of sponge cake, sweetened with Medjool dates and candied pecans, is covered with a warm, buttery caramel sauce and melty vanilla ice cream. This stuff is pure, over-the-top, rich, eyes-rolling-back-in-ecstasy decadence. Seasonal menus may come and go, but sticky toffee pudding is forever. $9.
