- Crispy flatbreads at Severin Bar (40 W. Jackson Place, 317-396-3623).
- Roasted peppadew peppers and whipped goat cheese at Bru Burger Bar (410 Massachusetts Ave., 317-635-4278), with a slightly sweet balsamic reduction.
- The chocolate lava cake from Fleming’s (8487 Union Chapel Rd., 317-466-0175). The rich Belgian cake is extra decadent when dipped in Chantilly cream.
- The Hoosier Spring Rolls from 10-01 Food & Drink (1001 Broad Ripple Ave., 317-253-1001) require little dipping sauce. The crispy rolls, stuffed with chicken, kale and tasso, are flavorful enough on their own.
- Pistachio gelato at Gelo (114 E. 49th St., 317-925-0765).
