A friend and I stopped by this cafe after a mini-birthday celebration. I knew nothing about the story behind this cafe until I was in the cafe and read a news article via the Toronto Star. Knowing the story behind this cafe made me enjoy the dessert and appreciate the small details in the cafe even more.
This place serves over 10 different flavours of creme brule - such as vanilla bean, pandan coconut, lychee vodka and some vegan options as well.
They also serve caffeine drinks such as matcha green tea latte, chai latte, cappuccino etc, Belgian waffles and home made ice cream.
I opted for the Pandan Coconut Creme Brule ($5) - the owner will use a blow torch for the brule part right in front of you. It was light and fluffy and I didn't feel guilty after eating it. You can also order them for take out as well.
This place does get busy after 8pm (I came on a Friday) and it can be slow because of the process of blow torching the creme brule (only the owner does that).
The cafe is super cute and has a minimalistic design to it. Come for the dessert, enjoy the atmosphere and go home happy.
