Chocolate

One of my favourite pastimes is to check out new cafes on the block . After a movie at the new mall, Iluma yesterday, I couldn't resist stopping over at "Cheeky Chocolates". It proved to be a pleasurable "licking" experience.

My friend and I ordered a chocolate crepe and a button mushroom pasta. Albeit the dessert was served first, it turned out to be a lip-smacking treat. Crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, the crepe went down well with rich chocolate taste, along with a scoop of ice-cream . Not a tad too sweet. Cold yet warm combination...

Next, the pasta was presented to us. Unfortunately, it was not the vegetarian version, which we have specifically requested as bits of ham were detected in the pasta. We feedback to the waitress and it was promptly whizzed back to the kitchen without further questions. To our surprise, the management made it up with a quick chocolate waffle while preparing the pasta for us:) I must say the waffle was not as good as the crepe but still delectable. After all, dessert is ladies' best friend.

The button mushroom pasta did not disappoint us either. While it was served in cream sauce, it did not create a "repelling" feeling after we finished it. The serving of mushroom was just right and crunchy that went well with the smooth pasta. Only issue was that the pasta was a little short in quantity. To complete our meal, we ordered an extra mushroom soup. At $4.90, it was value for money. Along with it came a sizable bread to my delight (being a bread fan). In my opinion, the soup is a must-try as as it was addictive with the aroma of mushrooms, perfect for mushroom lovers.

Overall, the offerings coupled with reasonable pricing and excellent service would see me returning for more. Let me know if you agree when you have patronized the cafe.
