From The Affogato Bar; newly-opened at Cluny Court serving up their signature dessert Affogato and fresh hand-rolled Bagels β€” mention the word Affogato and pre-NS XW (aka Fat XW) would be pleased; possibly one of my favourite desserts before my enlistment.

The Carota Carota is one of their "standard" line of Affogato β€” think of Carrot Cake meets coffee for this one as it comes with Carrot Cake Ice-Cream, Carrot Cake, Walnuts, Homemade Cream Cheese and Macademia. Going for a spoon of all of the elements combined, the elements indeed felt like a good Carrot Cake; cinnamony flavours that binds well with the tangy cream cheese with bits of nuts to crunch and a fluffy, moist sponge β€” a dessert that was already indulging on its own. Pour in the espresso, and it suddenly adds a hint of aromatic earthiness from the coffee, soaking the sponge and integrating with the other components β€” it's like as though one is simply enjoying a cup of Long Black with a slice of carrot cake on the side. Looking forward to be back to try the other combinations!
