Revamped menu at Ecstasy, Sathyam Cinemas

Dessert-Chef Mickael Besse has brought in some fabulous flavours after a long while. They include Hazelnut Crepe, Guava, Red Fruit Charlotte, and Paris-Chennai Macaroon. After drooling over the new additions at the display counter, I finally sought the aid of the ever-friendly Ecstasy staff to decide on the delicacies, to give my taste-buds an ecstatic ride.

I began with the Paris-Chennai Macaroon. It was a pretty looking, crispy, sugary wheel sitting inside a macaroon that had a magnificient butterscotch filling. It was quite satisfying and worth the try.  My next choice was the Hazelnut Crepe. It had a nice nutty flavour with the right amount of sweetness. Very soft and creamy.

The new additions to the ice cream section included rose&pepper and milk-raspberry jam. I went for the rose&pepper. It was a bit watery, but it tasted quite simple and had a short life on the tongue. My next try was the milk-raspberry jam.  It was quite creamy and had big chunks of candied raspberries in it to my surprise. It was quite milky, smooth and easy on the palate. There was a nice lingering after-taste.

The new additions weren't a let down so far. I need to try the others on my next visit. I recommend dessert-buffs to try the new menu. My personal recommendation on the menu would be the liquorice-raspberry tartlet and tiramisu.

Bon-appetit..
