I feel so smart! I upload my photos first in case the site freezes on me! I want to SCREAM, I LOVE THIS PLACE! Why haven't I gone sooner!!!! I feel like I wasted part of my life by not coming here sooner. I feel like I wasted my tastebuds energy by not coming here sooner. I feel like I wasted my calories on other cakes that I've ate that are not good. Ok you get it, I LOVE THIS PLACE. Everything is over the top here at the Mandarin, packaging, price, service, decor, etc... I chose the Opera ($39
I want to SCREAM, I LOVE THIS PLACE! Why haven't I gone sooner!!!! I feel like I wasted part of my life by not coming here sooner. I feel like I wasted my tastebuds energy by not coming here sooner. I feel like I wasted my calories on other cakes that I've ate that are not good. Ok you get it, I LOVE THIS PLACE. Everything is over the top here at the Mandarin, packaging, price, service, decor, etc... I chose the Opera ($39), Raisin scone ($18), and Custard donut ($20). The Opera is so good. It was the perfect percentage of dark chocolate used that wasn't bitter not sweet, but with cocao flavor.The texture was amazing as none of them stood out more than the other creating an awesome balance and consitency to put your fork through it. It was tiny and I could have finished it with 2 bites but I slowly devoured it. The raisin scone was the best I've ever had, I'm serious. I've had scones in United Kingdom many times from places like Harrods to a regular bakery. The raisin scone was moist an it wasn't hard like a rock. I chose to eat it without butter, cream, and jam, but in reality you don't need it because it is so good. I would like to have more raisins in it though. That day they had 3 kinds of scones, plain, cheese, and raisin. The custard donut....well...I don't was to say it was bad, nor average. It was good except for the dough, it was tough and too chewy for a donut. I'm from California and we have a lot of good donut shops, and I grew up eating donuts, so I know what I like in a donut. The texture bettwen the custard filling and chewy tough dough didn't meld together. If the dough was a bit softer this donut would be so amazing because the custard filling was so AH MAY ZING! They sure did not skimp on the filling. I would like to see this custard filling used on profitleros or even in a layer of a cake.
I will definitely come here again and again. However, I will dine in next time so I don't kill any trees. The packaging was too much even though it was nice.
