BAKE Cheese Tart@Century City ★★★

Japanese Cheesecake in a Tart. Originally from Hokkaido. Tart was soft and moist. Love the Green Tea flavor. Thanks to Yelp Elite Perk, I got to sample a box that comes with 6 pieces of a variety of cheese tarts for free, even included a nice insulated bag from Yelp. Can be eaten cold, frozen, or heated up. They are $3.50 each. The store could be a bit hard to find, so use the freestanding directory in the mall.

Also, I finally archived Yelp Elite Black status this year, after being a Yelp Elite for 10 years! The journey sounds long, but it happened with a blink of an eye!

On 2nd floor between Aldo and Eataly, closer to Aldo.

Fantastic New American Restaurant. By celeb Chef David Myers from Comme Ça & Chef Kuniko Yagi from Top Chef. Flavorful Asian fusion blend w/ herbs like thai basil lemon grass. Great food & quality. The dishes came out really fast. Definitely try their revolutionary signature black Lobster Roll. Pumpkin Toast with its texture and the goat cheese accent is just simply delicious.
