Grapefruit Tart at Floriole Cafe & Bakery

Grapefruit Tart ($5.75)
We make lemon cream for most of the year but when we have beautiful grapefruits we start making grapefruit cream. Even if you don't really like grapefruit, this tart is pretty amazing. The cream is sweet and complex from the grapefruit with only a hint of bitterness that most people associate with the fruit.
Pairing: an nice glass of cava
