NOSH, a fairly new cafe in Bangsar Telawi area that has gained tremendous popularity. Yes, for their desserts. NOSH is the brainchild of two ladies (which I later found out that she is one of our classmate's mum's friend) so yay for girl power! There's actually two menus in NOSH, their regular food & drinks menu, and their desserts menu. We have been to Three Little Pigs and Yeast before we set foot into NOSH so (naturally), we went for their desserts menu. Nosh has a classy and clean cut inter
We arrived at NOSH at around 3pm and we were the only customer there. Probably because it was a weekday and Malaysia has this norm of having desserts only at night. Our order arrived quite fast thanks to that.
Berry Harvest (Left) & Caramelized Pumpkin Panna Cotta (Right) RM29 for two desserts Berry Harvest features a combination of tart berries spiced up with Grand Marnier, rich custard cream, fragrant green tea and white chocolate
The Caramelized Pumpkin Panna Cotta on the other hand, features a creamy pumpkin panna cotta topped with burnt caramel and Andlaise sauce, on a bed of buttery Pecan Walnut crumble The body of Berry Harvest was smooth and refreshing. A little hint of sourness, paired with a fruity sweetness that is just nice, not too overwhelming, further enhanced by the milky white chocolate. The green tea cake base gives the whole dessert a slight bitter aftertaste. Bittersweet. This whole dessert had a sophisticated twist, but it all turns out well, perfect and balanced.
As a fan of pumpkin, the Pumpkin Panna Cotta immediately won my heart. Not just because of its subtle, sweet pumpkin taste (though I must admit, the pumpkin taste clearly is a win in this!). The texture of the panna cotta was light, fluffy and smooth as satin, a contrast to the crunchy butter pecan crumble base which was insanely addictive. The smooth Andlaise sauce complements the whole dessert perfectly. Perfectly. (I had to say it twice to emphasize how perfect this dessert was). The combination was simply brilliant.
