 Sure, lots of places make banana splits, but the version at Bi-Rite Creamery (3692 18th St.) truly elevates the art. The sundae ($6.50) has typical elements such as vanilla ice cream, hot fudge, whipped cream and nuts (toasted walnuts, in this case). But when they whip out the blowtorch to caramelize the bananas, creating a hard and sweet sheet like the topping of a creme brulée, you know that this is serious business indeed.
