What: Pecan Sticky Buns Where: Tipsy Parson, Chelsea's own Southern Belle-in-residence. Ideal meal: Breakfast, brunch, lunch, dinner, late-night snack. Once you've tried the pastries here, you'll know what you want to be eating for the next few days/weeks/months. Because: It's buttery and moist in that just-can't-have-enough Southern food, Paula Deen way. While inhaling your second serving, you'll subconsciously hear your mother's voice in your head: "A moment on the lips, forever on the hips." And you 'll just keep eating. Tastes like: A fluffy pastry that's easily pulled apart, with just enough sweet satisfaction drizzled on top and pecan halves that give it an irresistible, crunchy texture. Bottom line: $5 gives you enough bun for sharing, but you won't want to.
