Sir Cafe

Headed to Sir Cafe for a late night dessert on a Friday night. This newbie on the Adelaide dessert 'bar' scene is located on the next floor up from the iconic 'Vego and Lovin It' in Rundle Street.  A cute moustache logo is branded on everything and the place has fantastic decor, although is on the small side. We were lucky enough to get a table straight away, but they do have a list system where they'll call you when a table is free (like Eggless for those who have been there). The menu isn't extensive but has a good range of options. A lot of people were eating the signature 'cubes', loaves of honey bread stacked with ice cream, chocolate, fruit and more... however me and my company were on the full side after dinner so opted to try some of their other offerings. I had the chocolate mousse and an apple tea whilst my friend had a Bailey's cheesecake and coffee. I'm always hesitant to order mousse, often it's  powdery/grainy/been sitting prepared for hours. This mousse did not disappoint in anyway, it was rich and chocolaty, had a smooth texture and was fresh with no skin forming on the surface. It was a nice sized portion and was presented in a moustache shape which was uber cute! The almond biscuits were a nice touch and helped cut through the rich chocolate, which reminded me of a kinder surprise. My tea was really... unusual, in a good way. Normally when I order apple tea it's a black or green tea with dried apple chips, I always want a good apple kick and am often disappointed. At Sir the tea seemed to have been mixed with an apple juice, it had a strong sweet apple taste, and was at the perfect temperature for drinking. Reminded me of a warmed apple cider in some ways. My friend's cheesecake had a real coffee taste to it, and was actually a pretty large serve! Sir Cafe has done a good job of offering a unique range of menu options in Adelaide's almost saturated dessert scene, along with providing a good atmosphere and friendly service. They have EFTPOS which is also a positive as many of the small dessert places don't. I definitely plan on going back, I have my eye on one of the the signature cubes ;)
