THE LINQ PROMENADE — Sweet Sin by Claude Escamilla reopens at the outdoor shopping center in April with some renovations to the space, including a white pastry display case made in Italy and a chocolate fountain from France with three, 7-inch-diameter, curvilinear pipes that cross the ceiling and end in three taps behind the pastry case. Each tap dispenses dark or white chocolate or caramel that are used in crepes, chocolate-dipped strawberries, and hot chocolate. New decor includes more than 50 whisk-shaped pendant lights, polka dots in raspberry, tangerine, lemon, lime, turquoise, and plum, and a rotating case that displays 400 handmade macarons. The shop features 13 flavors of gelato, omelets, breakfast sandwiches, sweet and savory pastries, and cold brew coffee on draft. [EaterWire]
