VANCOUVER TRENDZ [THURSDAY]

Slice of Heaven

May 31, 2007

Fluffy and tasty to a degree that must be attributable to some divine power, it's easy to mistake cheesecake as a gift from the gods. Clearly the cooking deities responsible for this treat have bestowed special powers on one particular café here in Vancouver.

The cheesecake at Trees Organic Coffee is so delicious, you probably have to usually wait until the afterlife to sample it. The flavour options mean you can try slice after slice without getting the same great taste twice. Banana and white chocolate, blueberry, raspberry, chocolate swirl and New York. . .maybe this calls for a group outing? A little cake-tasting party, perhaps?

Find Trees tucked away on Granville behind all the SkyTrain construction. Bring a laptop for free wireless Internet and grab a fair trade, organic coffee, too. Or visit their website to get a coupon for a free latte when you order a cheesecake slice.
