Anyone know if Portabello Yacht Club has creme brulee?

Yes they do, but they call it Crema Cotta Carmellata. I don't know what - if any - difference there is between creme brulee and crema cotta, but it tasted the same to me!

Here's the recipe BTW and it sounds wonderful.


White Chocolate Creme Brulee
Crema Cotta Caramellata

Yield: 4 Servings

5 lg Egg yolks
1/2 c Sugar
2 c Whipping cream
3 oz White chocolate imported, finely chopped
1/4 ts Vanilla extract
2 tb Sugar

Position rack in center of oven and preheat to 300F. Whisk egg yolks and 1/4 cup sugar in medium bowl. Bring cream and remaining 1/4 cup sugar to simmer in heavy medium saucepan. Reduce heat to low. Gradually add chopped chocolate to cream mixture and whisk until smooth. Gradually whisk hot chocolate mixture into yolk mixture. Mix in vanilla.
Ladle custard into four 10-oz. custard cups (or creme brulee cups). Place cups in large baking pan. Add enough hot water to pan to come halfway up sides of cups. Bake until custards are set in center, about 1 hour. Remove custards from water and cool. Cover and refrigerate overnight.
Preheat broiler. Sprinkle 1/2 tablespoon sugar over each custard. Broil until sugar caramelizes, watching carefully, about 2 minutes. Serve hot, or refrigerate up to 1 hour and serve cold.
