So it's not a surprise that I love The Poached Pear. I love everything Yasha has ever created, from the lemon meringue to the pavlova to the chocolate tart. And who am I to say no to a new dessert my fellow food lover wants to send over?
When Yasha told me he has created an alternative to his original Lindt chocolate tart with Belgian chocolate who did a happy dance? I did a happy dance! Since I had half a tart to share, I wasn't stingy and shared it with my family.
Now keep in mind my father takes 3 teaspoons of sugar in his tea. So he basically drinks sugar with tea, not tea with sugar. Let me tell you he liked the dessert so much, he asked for the price so he could share the joy with friends and family. Needless to say, everyone else in the family loved it as well.
It wasn't just one element of the Belgian Chocolate Tart that was exceptionally good. The tart crust was flaky, buttery, crisp, but not so hard that it was difficult to fork through. The salted caramel was just the right mixture of salty and caramelly sweet goodness. And the Belgian chocolate layer on top was literally the icing on the cake. It was dark, rich, chocolate ganachey decadence and just the kind of dessert one would expect from Yasha.
The whole tart can probably feed 10-15 people easy and available at an introductory price of Rs. 3500 it may seem a little steep for some, but looking at the quality of the ingredients used, it's definitely a show stealer!
I can't wait to see what The Poached Pear comes up with for its birthday!
