Deserts Near Middletown 10940

No meal is complete without a sweet ending, and our Desserts selection offers a little something for every kind of sweet tooth – from Western classics to traditional South Asian treats. All our desserts are priced affordably (each just $3.99), inviting you to indulge in a guilt-free way. Here’s what’s on the menu:

• Cheesecake – A creamy, smooth cheesecake slice on a graham cracker crust. This is a classic New York-style cheesecake: rich yet not overly dense, with that tangy cream cheese flavor balanced by a touch of sweetness and vanilla. We often serve it drizzled with a bit of strawberry or chocolate sauce (if you like). It’s the kind of dessert that comforts you with its familiarity and silky texture.
• Baklava – A piece of our flaky baklava, which pays homage to the Middle Eastern influences in our cuisine. It’s layers of paper-thin phyllo pastry generously filled with finely chopped nuts (usually walnuts or pistachios) and held together by a sweet syrup kissed with honey and a hint of rosewater or citrus. One bite and you get the crunch of the pastry, the sweetness of the syrup, and the warm nuttiness inside. It’s decadent, but not too heavy or large – perfect with a cup of tea or coffee.
• Gulab Jamun – Perhaps the most cherished Indian/Pakistani dessert. Gulab Jamuns are soft, fried milk-dough dumplings soaked in a fragrant sugar syrup[14]. Ours come two per order (they’re quite sweet and indulgent, so two is plenty to satisfy). Served warm in their syrup, they are lightly scented with cardamom and rosewater. They are melt-in-your-mouth tender and embody the phrase “nectar of the gods” – an absolute must-try if you’ve never had them. It’s like a doughnut hole soaked in a sweet, aromatic syrup, but so much more delightful.
• Banana Pudding – An American Southern classic that has found its way onto our menu because, well, we love it! Creamy vanilla pudding layered with slices of fresh banana and vanilla wafers. Our banana pudding is old-school style – the kind you find at family gatherings. It’s chilled, fluffy, and the Nilla wafers inside soften to a cake-like consistency. Not overly sugary, just right, and it tends to be a hit with both kids and adults who enjoy a lighter, fruity dessert.
• Kheer – A traditional South Asian rice pudding. We simmer basmati rice slowly in sweetened milk (and a bit of cream) until it reaches a creamy, pudding-like consistency, flavored with cardamom and often garnished with chopped pistachios or almonds. Our kheer is aromatic and comforting – not too thick, not too thin. It’s usually served chilled and each spoonful carries the gentle scents of cardamom and maybe a hint of rose or saffron. If you like Western rice pudding or even tres leches, this is in that family, but with its own desi character. It’s a gentle, soothing end to a spicy meal.
• Ice Cream Cup (2 Scoops) – Sometimes you just want a simple scoop of ice cream. We offer a double-scoop cup of ice cream – flavors vary (we usually have classics like vanilla, chocolate, strawberry, and occasionally a special like mango). It’s a straightforward, sweet, cold treat to cleanse your palate. We serve it in a cup with a spoon – nothing fancy, just good ice cream. Perfect if you want to cool down after a spicy dish or make your little ones happy.

Each dessert is individually portioned – the perfect size to enjoy without feeling overly full (though you can absolutely share if you just want a taste). We prepare the kheer and gulab jamun in-house with authentic recipes, to ensure you get the real experience. The Western desserts are sourced from quality vendors or made in collaboration with local bakers, and handled with care so that they taste as delightful as they should.

Whether you’re in the mood for something syrupy and traditional like gulab jamun, something nutty and flaky like baklava, or a creamy cheesecake or pudding, we’ve got you covered. We often see guests pondering dessert options even if they came in not planning to have one – and at just $3.99, why not treat yourself? It’s the sweet finale to your Kababees culinary journey. Go ahead and pick your favorite – you’ve earned it after that delicious meal!

(And if you’re too full, consider taking one to-go for later. A midnight slice of cheesecake or gulab jamun after the fact can be a wonderful reminder of your Kababees experience. We won’t judge! Life is short, eat dessert.)
