They say Birthday never ends right?😝

The restrictions ain’t stopping me from indulging in my love for basque burnt cheesecake during my birthday!

This year, we tried 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐤𝐞 from @lollasg . Was intrigued by their Black Truffles Burnt Cheesecake but was sadden with the news that the truffle season was over!

Their 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐬𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐤𝐞 does boast the expected meltingly soft centre but I wish it was more molten! Made with cream and Spanish idiazabal cheeses, @lollasg cheesecake stands out with its lush yet balanced profile of flavours. Rich, creamy and not too sweet, their cheesecake was a luscious treat to have!

We got a side of potato to share. I can never say no to duck fat potato anything. Always loved it since I had them at Madison's in shanghai. Can hardly find them here in singapore though.

Overall for 2 pax we spent about $150 for 1 side, 2 mains and a small custard pudding to share

This is probably my favourite dish of the night. The tongue is done just nice - tender and flavourful. If only there is more!

Uni pudding ($28++) from @lollasg always hits the spot! The squid ink seafood pudding is savoury and full of umami which is enhanced even more with the uni. Definitely on the pricier side but worth the indulgence once in a while.

Enjoyed the taste of burnt top layer and molten cheese centre. At almost $18 a slice, I find it hard to have this as a regular treat.

Seaweed butter was salty, sea-ish and full on umami. How do I begin to describe it without sounding like a basic bitch? Is butter a carb? Doesn’t matter. We ended up ordering another set of toast (which the kind Lolla staff delightfully toasted in front of us), just to finish the butter. It was that good. And maybe I’m a basic bitch after all.
