For the first time I tried eclairs from this confectionery a couple of years ago at a Moscow food market. Even then, they seemed to me incredibly tasty and completely different from what they do in other pastry shops.
The confectionery did not yet have its own premises. Therefore, in order to enjoy them, one had to constantly follow the Moscow fairs and travel to different parts of Moscow.
In January last year, the confectionery got its own space. And a year later, I was finally able to get to the cafe and try how the eclairs have changed during this time.
The pastry cafe is located not next to the metro, so we had to walk a little. It's not far away, but that day there was a heavy snowfall in Moscow, so when I approached the place, I looked like a snowman. There is a pastry shop on the first floor of a residential building, the sign can be seen from afar.
The entrance is festively decorated with balloons (I got into the week when the cafe celebrated its first year of operation). Visitors can be seen through the windows over a cup of coffee. Climb the steps and walk in.
When you go inside, you find yourself in a kingdom of turquoise color. Some of the elements behind the bar are in gold tones. The cafe is very small, but at the same time it fits 5 tables and a common high table along the wall.
Each table is decorated with dried flowers in flasks. I settled at one of the tables and went to see what to order.
The order should be placed behind the checkout, and next to it there is a half-empty showcase with desserts. I decided to be upset, but it turned out that there were a lot of visitors in the cafe that day and the seller simply did not have time to fill the window.
But I didn't come here for cupcakes, but for eclairs. Showcase eclairs are available in full assortment. The price for them is the same - 250 rubles apiece. They look like works of art.
For a long time I could not choose what to try, so I decided to take everything one by one and test it at home (I'll tell you about the tasting in a separate article soon). As a result, in the cafe itself, I took Americano coffee and lemon eclair. I wonder what it tastes like?
There is such a classic French dessert lemon tartlet with meringue on top. This eclair is very similar to such a tartlet. Bright and juicy lemon cream inside, lemon glaze outside and small drops of meringue. All this is framed by a tender choux pastry eclair. Time to sum up.
I liked the cafe. It is cozy and quiet, and most importantly, it is very tasty. I will be happy to come here again. And most importantly, the taste of eclairs has not deteriorated in a couple of years. They are still divine.
Leaving the cafe in a great mood, I was especially glad that I still have a whole box of eclairs with me, which I will try at home. In order not to miss the release of the review of the rest of the eclairs, subscribe to the channel!
