N.Y. Cheesecake:
First observation: this cake is super small. The diameter is about the length of any pocket-sized smart phone (G2, iPhone...). But the cheesecake body itself is so dense - a couple forkfuls of this cake is sufficient to curb any craving for cheesecake. The cheesecake is not very sweet and is quite cheesy in terms of flavour. But if I were to draw a comparison of any element with a solid chunk of cheese, it would be the texture. I put it in the fridge for around 2 hours before serving this time. Last time, I put it in the freezer for an hour (didn't intend to...was at a restaurant) and it became so firm and dense I pondered for a sec whether it was a solid piece of sugared cheese...not cream cheese - too soft.Second observation: packaging. Pretty neat. It comes in this lightweight box tied with a Tiffany-blue ribbon. Nice packaging, unlike the conventional square box.
Third observation: there is no base for N.Y. Cheesecakes. Bitter disappointment because the photo on the Groupon website had a digestive biscuit base. Eating cheesecake without the savoury-sweet base is not a good experience. Something was lacking. The other types of cheesecakes had a base - oreo, digestives. Don't understand why they won't make one for this N.Y. Cheesecake. It would be something they could improve on.
Fourth: Happy birthday sign available. that comes with candles, of course.
Fifth: Mixed berry & red wine sauce was watery but tasty. I could taste the liquor in the sauce. There a LOT of berries in the sauce - it's not just liquid. I guess a sauce is different from a jam hence the watery consistency. The tartness of the sauce cuts the strong cheesiness. I ate berries straight from the jar. There's a mixture of blackberry, raspberry, black currant, blueberry. There's a lot of sauce to go around - never managed to finish the sauce before devouring the cheesecake.
Conclusion:
You get a coupon for each cake purchased.
$20 off subsequent purchases. Not a big fan of this cheesecake. Definitely not my choice pick, but if I want to buy a cake that looks nice, and am going for novelty, I will buy the other flavours. There's 3 other flavours - I will try them in due course. 张贴

這間芝士餅店聞名已久，難得它參加團購優惠，趕快買幾張優惠券試吃。紐約芝士蛋糕，配以特製嘅招牌果醬，果然是美味。蛋糕有很重的芝士咸香味，入口很滑，加入酸酸的果醬來中和味道，效果很好。果醬本身應該是用新鮮水果做的，我選了士多啤梨，果醬不甜，而且帶點新鮮水果的酸澀味，感覺很「真實」，不會像什麼化學配料，吃得健康。然而，我發現店子網上介紹紐約芝士蛋糕，是有餅底的，我們用團購換的，就沒有了。正常來說，紐約芝士蛋糕也應該有餅底的吧？希望不是偷工減料。談談店員的服務質素。一下子有那麼多人買了團購優惠，忙亂一點也是人之常情，但也該跟客人說明一些應留意的事項，例如怎樣將蛋糕保鮮，食用日期，果醬應如何配合才令蛋糕更好吃等等。取餅時，店員什麼也沒有說，只核對我留下的資料和檢收優惠券，待數分鐘之後便拿出餅來，也沒什麼，便趕快招呼另外的客人。我忍不住問她是否要放入雪櫃裡，她才「如夢初醒」般說是，雖然，作為一個有常識的消費者，這個問題也不應成立，但換個角度，作為一個負責任的店員，這些資訊也應該向客人交待吧？希望有關方面會檢討一下。
