After that heavy Lady Gaga hotpot dinner (a big garlic-chili-breath burp, excuse me!), The Stomach needs a dose of caffeine.
So we all take a detour to Agnes b. Cafe to get The Stomach a cup of coffee.
Lemon Tartlet – I don’t usually go for citrus flavors but this is a pleasant surprise. A good balance of sweet and tangy on a nice buttery crust.
Chloe – The Stomach’s favorite combo: chocolate and hazelnut. Add some feuilletine for some crunch and sponge cake for some… umm… sponginess?
Tell me, what stomach in its right mind can ever resist this?
Chocolate Chestnut Cake – the chestnut mousse is smooth and light, and rests on a crunchy chocolate base. Still, The Stomach is not a fan of chestnut desserts so it is not too impressed.
American Cheesecake – ok lah, but could be richer and denser
Chocolate Truffle Cake – smooth and moist but lacks that evil richness of real dark chocolate
Aha, and there’s The Stomach’s caffeine boost.
Sadly though, not half as strong as it requires.
Clockwise from The Stomach: Violette, Jesmin, Ann, Edith
And whoever said men don’t suffer from sweet tooth obviously hasn’t met these three: Teelie, David, Hubert
