text: To preface I must admit that the reason why I am about to give Cacao such a blah review is because I built my expectations up so high from reading all the wonderful reviews on urbanspoon and yelp nnSo I have to say I was pleasantly surprised by how warm the ambiance was I liked the large open kitchen and the wooden counters I liked the fairy lights and the spacious seating area nnMy friend and I were lethargically greeted and seated by a guy who looked like he wanted to just get out of there My friend got the Cioccolata Calda Italianstyle Hot Chocolate and I got the Fleur de Cao which was different than hers which was hot chocolate where as mine was cocoa based We also ordered the Cacao s Cheesecake nnThe drinks came and they were actually really delicious I have to say that I have never had hot chocolatecocoa this good They were rich and thick and creamy If anyone has seen that scene in the film Chocolat when Vianne is pouring cocoa into the cup for Armande and it is perfectly dense and rich well that is how our hot cocoachocolate was I liked hers more it did have quite a thicker consistency allowing her to drink with a spoon I wish mine also came in a cup instead of a fishbowllike glass which made it hard to drink from since it was quite hot after pouring in the cocoa It also detracted from the warmness that you should feel from drinking cocoa I feel nnBut what I did not likewell a lot actually First the price I am sorry but for hot chocolate Really Sure it was really good but I am not used to paying so much for hot chocolate Secondly the cheesecake Presentation wise I would give it a It gets point for drizzling red raspberry sauce on the plate ok fine another point for nice cut strawberries Otherwise it really seemed like they scooped yes scooped the rest of the cheesecake that was left and plopped in on our plate smothered it with whipped cream and called it a night It must have been some excellent quality whipped cream that we were paying for then because that is mostly what we ate The little bit of cheesecake I guess was okaynnWe could not finish our drinks because we were too full I do not think there will be a next time for me but I would recommend just getting either a dessert or drink The drink would have been satisfactory for me Whatever you do just do not get the cheesecake
