My sister basically horse-whipped us into the place, with our poor mother barely dragging herself along behind us, huffing and puffing along the hilly streets of the West End. But afterward, still slightly out of breath, even she said that it was all worth it.
On that day I ordered the banana cream pie, the very one for which my sister was pining. I am not a big banana cream pie fan, but with the build up she had given it I guess I was curious; and I was not disappointed. That rich creamy flavour was still on my tongue when I went back today.
Today I went back to buy a whole pie for a dinner party, so I had to sit down for a slice with coffee. My wife joined me, of course. She finished only about half of her Diplomat (a delicious light cake with filo pastry and creamy layers) and I ordered the Boston Cream (a light cake with cream layers and a chocolate ganache to die for), which I could not finish either. We took the rest home, which, I can imagine is quite common.
So, my fellow gastro-fanatics, if you are looking for desserts I tell you, you will not be disappointed by this fine establishment.
Bon appetite,
