Summer's Last Berries at Almondine

It seems that summer has made a brief reappearance. Almondine, the French bakery owned by Jacques Torres and Herve Poussot, is celebrating by making use of the season's ripe strawberries in a refreshing ice cream shake topped with real whipped cream. The fresh berries are also featured atop a layer of pastry cream in Almondine's fruit tarts ($3.50). If raspberries are more your style, try the sugar-sprinkled raspberry version.

Almondine, 85 Water St., Brooklyn, (718) 797-5026.
