Come and leave satisfied.

When it comes to Chicago desserts, we have to mention the slightly bitter but sweet chocolate brownie.

The origin of chocolate brownie has always been controversial in the dessert world.

According to one of the more reliable legends, the classic dessert chocolate brownie was created by Bertha Palmer around 1893.

Bertha Palmer was a Chicago socialite whose husband owned the Palmer House Hotel.

In 1893, the Palmer family invited a pastry chef to prepare a lunchbox dessert for ladies attending the Chicago World's Fair.

Chocolate, chopped nuts and egg flour are fused together and baked into small squares one after another. The world's first chocolate brownie was born.

However, the word "brownie" was not used to describe this dessert in any cookbook at the time. It was not until 1898 that the word "brownie" was first mentioned in the Sears Roebuck catalog published in Chicago.

Today, the Palmer House Hilton still uses the same recipe created more than a century ago to make the "oldest" classic chocolate brownie for diners coming and going.

Key West Key Lime Pie traveled all the way south from Chicago to Key West, the southernmost city in the United States.

The sound of the waves, the soft sandy beaches, and the magnificent and beautiful sunsets make this island city in Florida become the "end of the world" in the hearts of many people.

Perhaps it was this excessive beauty that made Hemingway stop here and write famous works such as "The Snows of Kilimanjaro" and "For Whom the Bell Tolls". Today, Hemingway's former residence is still located on Baitou Street in the city.

If you want to try a delicious dessert in Key West, there's one ingredient you're likely to see: lime.

A cross between a mandarin orange and a lime, this lime is native to Southeast Asia and grows abundantly in Florida.

Since 2013, Key West has held a "Lime Festival" during the July 4th weekend, which also shows the importance of limes in Key West's food culture.

Key West’s classic dessert, key lime pie, is made with this specialty lime.

This dessert appeared around the early part of the last century and was most likely created by local fishermen.

Since fishermen often spend several days on board, they bring food such as milk aboard.

In order to better store food, fishermen mixed limes, eggs, and milk together and baked them into a classic lime pie.
