I really must post about this – last weekend I had the most amazing strawberry tart, and I’d like to share it. Well no, I wouldn’t actually like to share it. I barely let my boyfriend get a look in, but he's quick with the grabby hand and was close to the fridge.
Light pastry (I wouldn’t call it a shortcrust as it wasn’t stodgy like a typical sweet pastry shell), freshly whipped cream and a lightly glazed dollop of strawberries. It may have been the best thing I tasted all weekend.
Even my boyfriend liked it, and he is not a fan of the sweet. He claims it is because he is so naturally sweet himself, but I say it’s his supersensitive teeth and his fear of emergency dental surgery. Which he had a month ago.
The tart is seasonal and can be found in my gob - or at À la Carte in Bruntsfield. The address is 156 Bruntsfield Place in Edinburgh. If you’re one of those people who has their GPS permanently welded to their face (ahem my dad) the postcode is EH10 4ER.
The shortbread and cheese scones are something to write home about as well.
