I went to Bakerzin today for Cindy and mine's birthday celebration. I have been meaning to try their special warm chocolate cake for quite so time. Its amazing that I have been there so many times and not tried, but I have always been more tempted by their array of delectable cakes more. So today, I resolved not to leave without trying.
We went to the one at raffles city, newly opened and very nice, with a zen like decor, perfect for chilling out after a long day. Our main course came pretty quickly..I ordered smoked salmon pasta with white wine cream sauce.
It tasted pretty good, and I have always been a huge fan of cream based pasta. And the sauce was really flavourful and creamy and generous. The salmon, however, wasnt impressive and it was way too cooked to be called smoked, but on the whole, the dish was pretty good. I pinched some off cindy's Champignons a la creme, which is actually mushroom stew served in herb flavoured vol-au-vent, and it was delicious and the pasty was crispy and buttery and the mushroom really fragrant. 
And this is the mushroom linguine
The highlight, was, of course desserts..haha, after much debate, we finally settle for tiramisu and the warm chocolate cake. The tiramisu was really delicious and authentic cos it was really made with mascarpone cheese and marsala wine, just as it should be and finger sponge soaked with espresso and rum...ohhh..I so love it.
And the chocolate cake. The portion size was disappointingly small, given the price, and the icecream portion was miserably small as well, however, the taste was more than up to expectations. As soon as it was set on the table, and the first spoon dugged into it, and out oozed the molten chocolate, and everybody oohed and ahhed as we tried to scoop it up and also the ice cream which was melting rapidly. It was gone in a matter of minutes, as 4 of us attacked it with gusto. It was really really good, the ice-cream is home-made, which is a plus. And the cake was really fanatatic.
The next time I come again, I will try the tapas where you can choose from a variety of mini desserts like creme brulee, panna cotta and some other very interesting stuff.... The good thing is that the portion size is small and you can have a selection of 3,5 or 7 tapas. So the key word here is variety...
Whoa...I am so very very full now...
