Deserted Dessert

Chef Matt went MIA today for a little bit and we were all wondering how to plate a chocolate cake. So, after that incident because the chocolate cake was 20 min in before it got plated (our goal is appetizers within 3 min of ordering)....he showed us how to plate a cheesecake plate (which is extremely soggy).

I also dropped by Firehook Cafe today to buy a slice of chocolate cake. I pass it everyday on my way to work and I have to say that I am not incredibly impressed. Here's the lady slicing up the beautiful cake.

The cake was a little dry and the icing was too buttery. It was like eating a stick of butter, not much flavor at all.
