CMK EATS : CHOCOLAT, SM MALL OF ASIA

If there's one dessert place that I go back into once in a while since 2009, that would be Chocolat! I still can remember my family's reaction when we first took a sumptuous bite of their cakes! Think: Eyes wide opened, mouth as if saying Oh! Fork, coming back to the yummy cake slice, by default.

Our favorites include Death by Tablea, Blueberry Cheesecake and my personal favorite, Tablea Cheesecake. Slurp! 

Their shop has a vintage feel. Though I noticed their magazines were so outdated. Place is not crowded usually hence, a perfect place to have a hearty talk with your loved ones. Also, I think their coffees are not that good. It is sorta bland if you'll ask me. Haven't tried their tablea (hot chocolate) but it looks appealing.

DETAILS:

Chocolat at SM Mall of Asia

Price range is around Php 80 - 125 per slice

Best Seller: Death by Tablea

CMK HAPPY THOUGHTS:

☺ Price. It's reasonable compared to its competitors. Slice of cake is just right 

and if you don't have a sweet tooth, one slice can be shared.

☺Water by default. Nice to know that there's a pitcher of house

 water to gulp in case it gets to sweet and sticky.

☺Place. I have an inclination for vintage-y and old places. 

Furniture are equally comfortable.

  CMK WISHFUL THOUGHTS:

☻Cakes are generally too sweet. I have a sweet tooth but 

I'm having a hard time finishing a whole slice of their cake. 

Cakes being ultra sweet will be apparent after 2-3 bites.

☻Magazines update! It's such a turn off when you have a 2-year old 

magazine sitting on a dessert place rack. Back issues are being sold 

after 6-months for Php 50-70 pesos, might be a nice improvement :)

CMK THINKS:

Worth a try. One weekend, schedule a cake-tasting session 

with your loved ones. Chances are, they'll give you a pat on the back 

for discovering some secret cake place. -CMK
