Dark Angel ($4.50) is hailed as a milk-chocolate lava that oozes out as one breaks the bread into half. It didn’t ooze unless I pressed it but it was barely almost sufficient for the rest of the bread interspersed with chocolate chips baked into the bread. For the chocolate lover, this Dark Angel just barely scrapes the passing grade but I wouldn’t go out for it specially.
P.s also bought the chocolate cruffin ($4.50) but I would skip it next time - it was cold and lifeless like a vampire.
ROI: 20%
*Note: my taste palate leans towards dark bitter chocolate at a sweet spot of 65%-72% cocoa. So please use that as a gauge of my taste perspective.
Lastly, I definitely don’t want to miss trying some classic type of pastry like this Pain Au Chocolat.
Generous chocolate filling inside the pastry.
I spotted this already when I’m still queuing, partly because of each interest colour of charcoal bread.
So decided to grab this as well. Funnily the texture was harder to bite than I would expected. But I like it actually. Especially when eating it with the generous cheese at the center.
Along the busy Bussorah Street, you would find a queue in front of this shop.
Mixture of tourists and locals, all of them are here anticipating to get a share for some of the excellent pastries from this shop.
There’s was so many options of pastries displaying on their shelf that I couldn’t make my choice immediately.
All of them just looking so exciting! But well my tummy and wallet is limited unfortunately.
First on my grabbing item, this Cranberry Cream Cheese Bagel has a very firm texture but not hard at all.
Good chocolate inside, the outside is crispy(only the outermost thin layer) and the pastry has some chew.
Not bad
It's not just the layer of choc outside, there's also choc chips inside.
However it doesn't taste very much like Madeleines anymore more like choc cake. Decent but not impressive
