Most people who know me say that when I find a good thing, I have a tendency to go a little overboard. Rice to Riches falls right into that category. There is only one thing on the menu (rice pudding) and about a hundred different ways to have it. They have every imaginable flavor from vanilla creme to toasted coconut. They also have a variety of toppings. My personal favorite is the marscapone cherry with pound cake croûtons.
I read an article in the paper last fall that the owners has been indicted for money laundering. Hopefully, they will pass the rice torch on before heading off to jail.

Dont worry about your diet! For sure this kind of dessert are UPPP with the calories. You deserve it to have it sometimes. I tried coast to coast cheesecake and the one with hazelnut - it is sooooo good!!!
I notice when guys serve they are more friendly than the gals. Ladies has no patience serving customers.

very unique dessert joint. we were walking on our way home from dinner and walked in for a taste test. service was acommodating, fun flavers, pudding lighter than ice cream, and never realized i'd actually think of holding onto tupperware. scene was mod but not passe, felt like we were suddenly in HK or Tokyo. too hip for NYC...hope it doesn't become as trendy as panini's.
Pros: great toppings, fun flavors
Cons: , is this fattening?

small bowls enough to serve one or two are $5. large bowls for a family of four to six are $20. it is expensive but worth the occasional splurge. they also give out lots of samples. the pudding comes in the most darling tupperware containers. All the flavors are pretty good, it is just a metter of personal perference. One problem is that there are only four tables for people to sit at. Stop at Lombardi's across the street for a killer pizza dinner beforehand!
Cons: pricey

I've been here twice so far and I love it! Their rice pudding is very rich (in taste AND price), but SO good---the free samples are definitely a plus! Unfortunately, a lot of the high cost is probably going to those huge plastic containers---they should have some system like the coffee places, where people can bring back their containers for refills at a reduced cost. If not, they make good tupperware containers anyway. I'm totally into the space-age vibe of this place, but I wish they had more tables to sit down at. I can't wait until Rice To Riches becomes a franchise---lucky for my waistline and my wallet, however, there's still only one. PS---CozyShack IS great, and way more affordable, but Rice To Riches is definitely a fun and yummy splurge.
Pros: flavor variety, yummy, cool "spoons"
Cons: COST,limited seating,, no low-fat variety, only one location

This is one of those places you just have to try once. The only thing they sell here is rice pudding and it seems like they're actually making money off of it! I got their maple syrup and blueberries flavor which was delicious. I don't think I would ever go again, but it was nice to try it once.
TIP: The single serving actually could serve two if you're going for dessert.
Pros: unique idea, food
Cons: price

It was good, but none of the flavors WOW. The closest that I got was the Cherry Marscapone, but they were out of it that day. It just sounded good. It's a cool little cafe where the pudding is overpriced. The staff should be a bit more friendly. (HINT: hire Starbucks employees who are tired of coffee)
Pros: Quality, Variety, Novelty
Cons: Location, Orange, Staff

While the mango version was tasty -- they still didn't have a plain ol', just like mom makes it rice pudding. Plus at $5.00 for a single serving, I'll stick with cozy shack, thanks.

A homier atmosphere, and cheaper prices would've made me a regular.
Pros: interesting flavors
Cons: no place to sit, sterile environment, overpriced
