| - I will drive down to Queen West, brave the one lane traffic and search for a parking spot just for a lemon meringue tart. Hell, I would take the bus, then walk, just to get a lemon meringue tart. THEIR l.m. tart. It's my absolute fave even though the lychee one comes close.
Yes, it's true. Clafouti sells quick...but that just goes to show how great their baked goods and coffee are. Actually, I'd be worried if I went to a much talked about place and they weren't selling their stuff. For a small place, they certainly have a decent amount of baked goods. I've lucked out many times and managed to grab seats. Otherwise, take out it is.
I bought the lavender shortbread cookies once just for something different and they were too lavender-y. I wouldn't recommend them unless you are into that.
The only reason I didn't give them a perfect score is because of the service. Well, you know being nice and friendly goes a long way sometimes even when you're just at the counter. Not all the staff are...should i say crusty? But it's probably a blessing that they don't offer table service. Anyway, even though some staff leave a bad impression in my mind, the tarts always leave a good taste in my mouth! Thank goodness too.
