Sweet Moments at The Gallery: Mission Fig Galette & More

At The Gallery Casual Dining & Cocktails, dessert isn’t just an afterthought—it’s a finale worth savoring. Whether you're finishing off a perfectly seared pork chop or just popping in for a nightcap and a treat, we love surprising guests with seasonal, handcrafted sweets.

And yes—sometimes, that means something a little unexpected. Like this beauty: our Mission Fig Galette, served with fresh whipped cream and just a hint of mint.

🥧 What’s a Galette, Anyway?

If a tart and a pie had a casual, rustic cousin, it’d be the galette.
Originally French, a galette is a free-form pastry made by folding the edges of dough over a filling—no pie pans, no stress, just golden, flaky goodness that celebrates whatever’s inside.

It’s the kind of dessert that feels homemade in the best possible way—crisp edges, juicy center, and that just-sweet-enough flavor that lets the ingredients shine.

🍓 Why Mission Figs?

Mission figs are one of nature’s quiet superstars. Named after the California missions where they were first cultivated in the 1700s, these dark, purple-skinned figs are:

• Sweet and earthy

• Jammy when roasted

• Rich in fiber, potassium, and antioxidants

• A perfect match for buttery pastry and light cream

In our galette, they’re sliced fresh and roasted until their natural sugars bubble up and caramelize slightly. Add a dollop of lightly whipped cream and… chef’s kiss.

🍨 What Else Is on the Dessert Menu?

We rotate our desserts frequently based on seasonality and inspiration. That means you might find:

• Fresh fruit crisps with oat crumble

• Citrus olive oil cakes

• Chocolate flourless torte

• Vanilla bean panna cotta

• Locally inspired creations from our culinary team

Each one is made in-house and with intention—because the last bite of your meal should be just as memorable as the first.
