Please someone... explain to me how this is an amazing place?
For a while I worked across the street from this cake shop, and would watch people line up for their cake(s). Months went by and I expected the lines to fall off... but no. Everyday for a year there were lines.
Now the best part of working in the neighbourhood and having sightlines of the storefront. I could run down last minute and grab a cake when the line was short to none (and it does happen). From watching on the outside... the idea of lining up for these cakes was silly.
... But those cakes!?!?!... They are quite tasty. Now I wouldn't say they're over the moon tasty, but they definitely have a delicate balance of fluffy cake and cream and everything delicious.
Would I recommend these cakes to anyone? Probably the more adventurous would wait. But in all honesty, I would only suggest visiting when the opportunity creates itself. The cakes are good... but not 45 minutes of waiting good.
