The Pop ; Sahil and the Gorgeous Breads

The Yummiest Lemon Tart ever had

 Ate a nice Lemon Tart after a Long long time .. trust me it was too die for . The lemon butter was perfectly mixed , the lemony flavor was awesome just  tangy like it should be , the pastry crust was soft and yet hard ..  brilliantly done .

Sorry about the Picture - The Sour Dough Chicken Sandwich

 People have been raving about Sour Dough which is a fermented bread .. yes it was good has a short shelf life , has to be kept in the right moisture  nicely wrapped , has to be eaten with some good fillings or even straight if u can .. i love it with my coffee . The filling Chicken marinated in Dijon Mustard, herbs de provence, Caramalised Onions and baby tomatoes tossed in Red Wine.. beautiful texture crunch toughness juicy and amazing flavors .

The Sinful - Monte Cristo

A blend of Dark chocolate and French cream, mixed with Praline crunchy, on an almond sponge. pure Sin , Pure Chocolate beautifully blended .

The Macroons 

From medieval to modern times, the macaroon has made its mark. They are rich crisp yet tender almond shells filled with different flavored ganache. This will fill your soul with warm, fuzzy happiness after one bite.. yes thats true .

The Winner Takes It all - Choux Pastry

Choux pastry with hazelnut custard topped with Almond flakes and icing Sugar.. Messy to eat but no fun til you diggin with your hands ... amazing hazel nut flavor .. i kept saying uff aur nahi . but then slowly finished the pastry .

The Breads & Croissants

The Croissants .. fluffy light airy buttery .. are the main characteristics of a good Croissant ...  Sahil has used French Butter and it has made a world of difference .. they made me try a number of versions .. Cream Cheese , Chocolate and yes the ham n Cheese sandwich ..  Just wow .. 

Sour dough .. while doing my research fr this blog i just googled Sour dough and then what happened is i spent 4 hrs reading about this bread , its history , the method of baking , its usefulness .. god im impressed with the people who found this bread .. truly amazing .

Tigers Overall Experience : Sorry if i kept using 'Beautiful' all the time but for me Pastries can only be Pretty and nothing else .. the look , the textures , the flavors , the ingredients , the effort behind putting it together is certainly an art , well captured by Sahil .  Pastry making is an art why ? You may get educated under the best Pastry chefs but til the time you dont practice its all useless ..  pastry making is an art of perfection .. putting the right elements together , the perfect timing , the perfect blend and yes ultimately the perfect look .Hence concluded im better off eating them LOL .
