Ask anyone who patrons Alexis Bistro and Bar what is the most often ordered dessert and there is a high chance it would be Alexis's signature Tiramisu.

Ask anyone who patrons Alexis Bistro and Bar what is the most often ordered dessert and there is a high chance it would be Alexis's signature Tiramisu. On the 29th after having dinner, me and my partner headed to Alexis for a slice of their signature Tiramisu. To our dismay, we were a step too late and had to see the couple next table savoir the last piece of Tiramisu for the day. The manager was kind enough to recommended 2 varieties of meringue. One of which is the mixed berry meringue the other is mixed nuts meringue. We opted for the mixed berry meringue.
The mixed berry meringue is topped with a healthy amount of strawberries and berries and has two layers of fluffy meringue. In between these two layers is a healthy amount of yogurt and berries. Although the strawberries were sour, the taste was balanced out by the sweetness of the meringue and the blandness of the yogurt. The texture of the cake is soft of the palate while the edge of the meringue is crunchy and melts in your mouth.
I would not say this is cake is on par with Tiramisu but I would not mind ordering this cake again as the saying goes there must be balance in life.
