"The egg custard tart was incredible, featuring the flakiest layers I've ever encountered in a lard crust—it was truly magical. The custard itself was silky, lightly scented with vanilla, perfectly sweet, and baked to perfection. The coconut macaroons, which some refer to as "haystacks," looked, smelled, felt, and tasted exactly like the ones my grandmother from Alabama made for Easter every year. I couldn’t resist and ended up buying TEN of them—don’t judge me!
The Japanese soufflé cheesecake could have been a tad lighter, but its subtly sweet and neutral cheese flavor practically begged for a coulis or fresh fruit topping. Nevertheless, I still bought another slice to take home—I have some homemade berry preserves that need a companion. Lastly, I picked up a beautiful lemon layer cake for my daughter. It was perfectly proportioned, and I can only hope she’ll let me have a taste!"
