"I was eyeing this place for post-lunch dessert before I realized that I could have ice cream nearby. I came back anyway after dinner. Chocatoo is an island in the middle of the food court-like, western building of the San Pedro Square Market. Their name is an obvious mashup of cockatoo and chocolate; per their web site, they were founded by sisters from Australia, one of the native countries of said bird. I don 't know if that background particularly influences the dessert selection or creation here; I 've experienced Australian gelato several times and not found the flavors very unfamiliar. Oh wow, I just realized that the island thing is super appropriate for Australians... Menus include a large board with a list of all the coffees, teas, and other beverages oh hey, Australian sodas are listed! and a small paper with the prices of the cookies displayed on one edge of the kiosk/store without prices . All other pastries are on display with prices, so the cookie menu struck me as an odd conceit. I bought two items. The Triple Chocolate Chip Cookie $3.26 is a stunner, with the chewy middle that I like, the typical cookie flavor, and copious amounts of three different forms of chocolate. I 'd like to say that I devoured it all at once, but I kept some of it around for later and found it to be just as delicious, if not better because I stopped being palate-numbingly full. One contributor to that fullness was the [S 'mores Bacon equals... S 'morcon $5.50 , which I decided was more perishable because it 's stored in the cold case. I ate the entire thing, but that wasn 't all because I loved it. The chocolate was not as delicious as in the cookie, the graham cracker wasn 't prominently crunchy that ice cream from earlier reminded me of how textural contrast can be so heavenly , and it was just unwieldy to handle. Now that I 'm thinking back, if I 'd broken up the chocolate coating at the waist around the marshmallow, I could have compressed it. Ah well... I was told not to attack the with utensils, but my actual strategy toward the end was to take half-height bites. If I 'd had a plastic knife, I could 've cut the marshmallow in half and spread out that savory and salty bacon. Oh, here 's another thought: maybe they should just create a huge weaved bacon layer those old photos are just hashtags, not real weaves rather than chopping it up. A man can dream. Interpret my rating for Chocatoo as the middle ground between my positive impression of the cookie and my disappointment in the execution of the bacon-topped dessert. If I find the occasion to return, then I will try typical desserts instead."
