Spicy Mina's---where to go after?

We are going to Spicy Mina's----any suggestions on where to go around there for dessert?

    El Sitio for some good flan and cuban coffee.

      why have dessert elsewhere? the carrot halwa at Mina's is excellent, as are many of her sweets.

        The rice pudding is excellent. I am not a fan of rice pudding, but I have to admit her version is terrific. I guess the only other dessert option would be a trip to nearby Astoria for Greek stuff.

        you can walk up to Krystal's Cafe on Roosevelt for some filopino desserts, halo halo etc. fun stuff. Its also a short walk to some of the Jackson Hts sweet shops on 37th if you want to continue hyour so. asian theme.

          Also, it's not a long walk from Spicy Mina's to Sripraphai. (Though I wouldn't try going there just for dessert during a dinnertime crunch.)
