At Puff is a charming cafe just south of Yonge and Finch. It had only opened for a week as of this writing. My friend and I were just walking up Yonge St when we stumbled across it.
The decor is very nice. I can tell the owner pays much attention to details; from the decor to the dessert presentation.
Dark maroon walls surround with gleaming white accents, there's a mix of hard and soft furniture. I spotted even a Tiffany table lamp. The furniture inside is much like one would find in a home.. it's conveys a mood that's warm and inviting and makes it nice place to read and enjoy nibble /drink.
We noticed attached to the ceiling was this draping brown cloth? -- not sure if it for an effect or not but to me it felt like a backstage dressing room in Paris.
After looking at the menu we decided on a couple of drinks and some puffs.
My pomegranate ice tea was very cool and refreshing. It was perfectly sweetened. The use of holed ice cubes cooled down the tea quickly.
The puffs, ice cream filled ones were served in a bowl, and the custard filled ones were served on white apex shaped plates. They were drizzled with chocolate sauce and powdered sugar.
My take - the fillings were okay (had vanilla and macha), they had put tiny pieces of butter toffee with the custard filled ones, I just found the choux pastry shell tasted a bit hard and bland.
