Cake
My Achilles heel.
We visited Baker&More in Ibn Battuta because it was my birthday and I felt I deserved cake for reaching the ripe old age of 20.
The waitress recommended the blueberry cheesecake to us, so in a highly unoriginal fashion I plumped for that, while my brother opted for carrot cake. We had 3 macarons to complement the huge slices of cake because neither my brother or mum had tried them before. This was, in my opinion, outrageous and needed to be corrected.
Macrons in pistachio, chocolate and passion fruit flavours.
But, as it happened, I needn't have worried. Despite the waitress' overzealous recommendations, the cheesecake was bland and rubbery. The macarons were far too sweet and tasted artifical (rather than faking natural tastes) and my macaron, which claimed to be passion fruit, was more like a purple, generic fruit thing.
So, the verdict on Baker&More? If you're after a decidedly average, extremely large piece of overpriced cake then look no further.
