This is the right place to go for something uncomplicated and traditional, yet so very satisfying. There isn't anything on the menu or in the cake window that is unique to the realm of desserts and you might be slightly disappointed to be recommended the solitary, plainly-iced slice of chocolate cake in the window. It will be promptly brought out with a generous blob of thick cream and initially, you might dig in with little enthusiasm. However, misgivings will dissolve almost the instant your tastebuds come into contact with the first morsel. Fear not that this firm, dark cake will leave you with a toothache - the flavour is bittersweet, the way really good chocolate is, no doubt because the bakery chooses to use top-notch ingredients. In contrast, the cream complements the cake with natural milky sweetness. And although firm like a flourless cake, this one certainly does not leave you feeling like you've just swallowed a sack of flour!
