After about 5 minutes of standing in front of the dessert counter, weighing between the apple crumble, chocolate truffle or lemon meringue tart (there wasn’t a dessert section on the online menu) we chose the lemon meringue tart ($7.50). I popped off to the bathroom and when I came back turns out my mom had ordered the chocolate truffle cake ($6) as well because you can only pay with visa for payments above $20. Good excuse.
The meringue of the lemon meringue tart was a bit too creamy and not light enough for my liking though I did like the tanginess of the lemon filling. The pastry shell had an interesting texture (I think there was some sort of cereal baked into it).
The chocolate truffle cake had different layers of textures – cake, mousse and the crispy base (which is my favourite bit). The only thing was that it was milk chocolate and I much prefer dark chocolate when it comes to truffle cakes (but that might just be me). Anyways, I preferred it to the lemon meringue tart.
