Sweeteria, a coffee/tea and dessert spot from the owners of Kao Thai Restaurant, opened last month at 8646 Colesville Road. We stopped in to check about a specific dish that many have been raving about and were not disappointed. The Thai Tea Toast with Coconut Ice Cream, fresh fruit, and other goodies was as good as advertised. Already relatively popular in the short time it has been there, as evident by the multiple carry-out orders that were picked up in the short time we were there, Sweeteria is a charming cafe with a friendly staff and a tasty product.
We look forward to picking up some sweet treats again soon.
