Went in for soup but came out with cake!! They were out of the soup of the day, but the beautifully constructed little cake in the window caught my eye. I have no regrets....it was spectacular.
Chocolate chip layer cake with toasted coconut & almond frosting.
Easily one of the best slices of pastry I've ever eaten. Here's what appealed to me: the cake was dense & moist. It had that homemade taste that reminded me of my mom's chocolate chip bundt cake. The edges had caramelized against the heat of the pan so it added a great dimension to the flavor. The frosting-to-cake ratio was perfect for me.
Doing double classes at the Y today to clear out my arteries, but it was totally worth it.
