Chocolate cheesecake

I went with a group of friends to The Cavendish, a pub in Sheffield. My friend ordered their chocolate cheesecake. It looked amazing. And she said it tasted as good as it looked!

A Thyme and Place for everything

Election Week in the UK culminated in what I’d call Hung Thursday on 6th May 2010. That was also the day I discovered this little gem: Thyme Café. Perched in Broomhill, Sheffield, this little place has the most brilliant concept ever! The ambience is very relaxed and they have a huge blackboard at one end…

Barista for a day!

I went for the Barista training class offered by my university and thoroughly enjoyed all 2.5 hours. I made an espresso, a latte, a cappuccino and an iced mocha latte. We could drink what we made but I could only manage a handful of sips for each. Even so, that night I was completely wired!…

Forum Café: good eats, decent price

On Division Street in Sheffield, overlooking the picturesque Devonshire Green sits this funky place called Forum Café that has good food in decent proportions and with affordable prices.

The best Tiramisu I’ve ever had

Feast your eyes on the best tiramisu I have had till date. And considering I’ve had loads, this is really saying something. I had this on the day I was out celebrating my birthday – and the tiramisu made it oh-so-much better! To get this little treasure, come over to Sheffield, UK and head to…

Hallowe’en Cupcakes

The city centre of Sheffield gets into the festive mood at various points of the year. At Hallowe’en, apart from ghoulish rides, haunted castles and zombies in the storefront of Marks and Spencer instead of the usual mannequins, food stalls were aplenty. I picked up the chocolate-y spider cupcake while my friend had the ghost…
