Sweets etc.


I was told Harrods makes the best cheesecake in London.  So I tried it.   The cake was alright, like normal good New York cheesecake, but the crust was...... super!!!!

It was not a soggy crust made with digestive biscuits.  It was crispy, like crushed cornflakes , soaked in espresso without taking away the crispy crunchy texture of course.  It goes exceptionally well with the heavy new york cheesecake.

Best with a pot of Moroccan mint and gunpowder tea.  (Nope they don't have it there.)  It was a huge slice and the tea could serve well as a digestif.

Oh, the whole "cake eating and looking at fancy sundaes other people ordered  in an art deco setting" experience actually reminded me of Klavon's Ice Cream in Strip District, Pittsburgh.  A nice place we archis of 2003 used to hang out during the summer, the good old days!
