We didn't eat much at all during dinner tonight cuz we knew about our mission later in the evening - to visit one of my favorite cake shop near Stanley Park, called True Confections.
I used to visit this branch of True Confections a lot during my university days partly due to its proximity to UBC where I studied. It's a short 10-minute drive so whenever we studied late, it was the perfect venue to charge our battery with something sweet. There were two things that we would always order - their pecan pie and New York style cheesecake. I won't say there were the best pecan pie and NY cheesecake ever but back then in Vancouver, there were just not that many choices out there when it came to desserts, or more especially cakes.
We got here pretty late and were dealt with a huge blow when we saw the long lineup in front of the cafe. There was no way we could get in before their closing time so rather than wasting time in the lineup, we wound up getting our pecan pie and cheesecake to go. These tasted exactly like they did more than a decade ago. I was nice to get those flavors back in my mouth.
