The teacup cheesecakes will run you $13. Pricey? Not for what you get. They were almost too pretty to eat. Once you get over the artistry and dig in, they are just as delicious as they are beautiful. Hand made with quality ingredients. No artificial flavours or preservatives. We got to try one of the green tea versions and a fresh fig version.
When I spoke with the lovely Drita about bringing my group of ladies in, she was telling me that they have 150 different varieties of cheesecake. She is always willing to create something new with the caveat that if it is popular, it goes on the menu! Drita was lovely enough to print me off the list of flavours so that I could let the ladies choose and order ahead.
It was exciting being able to see all of the flavours to choose from, but also a bit overwhelming because it may take me a couple of years to try them all!
We got our favourites picked and ordered in advance. All of my ladies dressed up and wore their fancy hats. We arrived – the place was PACKED! (this was Saturday afternoon)
PRO-TIP: Swiss 2 Go does not take reservations! We had no idea.
We finally managed to sweet talk another table into trading so that we could get two tables together which would be enough space to fit our large group. Mission accomplished.
We enjoyed our mochas and lattes, and caught up on each other's lives. We had a delightfully lovely afternoon. The cheesecakes were heavenly. My flavour was honey lavender. It was garnished with a sprig of dry lavender. So pretty.
Hicks on Six gave Swiss 2 Go a pretty amazing review and he can be a bit of a hard ass. Budget and epicurean friendly. Go support local and give them a visit!
