Eat this Floating Island dessert at Brasserie by Niche

The Floating Island dessert at Brasserie by Niche is impossibly light and on the knife’s edge of sweetness. Fluffy clouds of poached, soft meringue float on top of a pool of vanilla-scented crème anglaise garnished with a ribbon of caramel and toasted almond slices for a satisfying crunch. We always have room for this ethereal dessert.
