canele

the latest addition to the chain at shaw centre. canele is popular for their macarons but i don't really fancy them.

i ordered the 2 slices of cake to share. the strawberry shortcake and triple chocolate cheesecake.

Fresh strawberries layered with crème chantilly and Japanese shortcake laced with kirsch.

hmm... didn't know the cake is soaked in brandy. no wonder the cake is rather moist. i like the generous layer of fresh strawberries. a pity that they weren't sweet.

Walnut chocolate fudge cake, chocolate chip cheese cake and dark chocolate chantily.

the cheese was rich and creamy well-balanced by the chocolate cake and cream so this slice of triple chocolate cheesecake wasn't heavy at all.

between the two, i would recommend the latter 'cos i really wished the slice was bigger. :)
