Desserts@The Chocolate Factory

Drop by here for some desserts as we are still early for the "Spurs v Liverpool" game. This place was getting rave reviews since it opened. Laurent Bernard is the one who makes the pastries and chocolate.

The menu is simple, nothing fancy but you can't miss Choco Roma. Made with bitter chocolate and slightly sweetened, comes with marsmallow, a piece of chocolate and a piece of something which not sure if it is a bread or cake. Pieces of raisins soaked with rum dwelt at the bottom of the big cup. This is a must try !


I didn't order that. I tried the moroccan mint tea. I like it, it doesn't leave the after taste of normal tea.



Now comes the best part ! The pastries ...... The chocolate truffle and the crispy chocolate tart. The truffle is a chocolate that have layered of sponge cake in it. The layer of chocolate on top and in-betweens was just the right amount and goes well with the cake. It was really good !


The crispy chocolate tart !!! No wonder is one of their best seller ..... For me, this is definitely the dessert of the year ! Eating this is like eating Kit-Kat but made with much finer ingredients ... a crisp crust, hazalnut praline, crisp choco flakes and the thick glossy dark chocolate top. Eating it in small pieces was just really good .........
