LOCAL EATS

Soh Bae introduces us to some
Instagrammable treats from
Ah-Room dessert café off
Lake Street.

MATCHA GANACHE TART
If you are a matcha lover, this tart is for you.
A rich, authentic tasting matcha is combined
with white chocolate to make the ganache,
which is then encased in a crispy shell. The tart
is then adorned with a smooth matcha cream
and dusted in matcha powder.

SIGNATURE DACQUOISE
Dacquoise is a layered almond
meringue with a spongy texture
– crisp on the outside, and soft
and moist on the inside. There
are nine flavours to choose from
when it comes to the meringue’s
filling: matcha, mango,
passionfruit, earl grey, tiramisu,
salted caramel, blueberry,
strawberry yoghurt, or
an-butter. My favourite’s the
passionfruit!

PLUM ADE
Ah-Room serves not only
sweet treats, but delicious
drinks too. Next time you’re
there try a sparkling ade
– if you can ever choose
a flavour! Grapefruit,
blood plum, kiwi,
strawberry, yuzu lemonade,
passionfruit and mango are
just some on the menu.
