The first time I heard of this place was a friend's suggestion for risotto. We didn't end up going. This time, it was recommended by another friend who suggested that we go there for afternoon coffee.
The restaurant is located in the middle of an art culture park that is known for art performances, and restaurants. The interior decoration at VVG Thinking is very medieval, with wooden carvings of animal heads hung on brick walls; Arch pillars to move between rooms, and floral interior decorations. This is just the first floor.
Dessert is ordered at the display counter. Not a lot of coffee options. The restaurant also offered a decent selection of meals which I have yet to try.
There were five of us today, and each of us selected a different dessert to try. Of course, we each all had to have a bite of every dish. I have to say that their crème brule is excellent with oatmeal used as the bottom layer. Very interesting combination, and I would no doubt order this again.
My next favourite is the cinnamon apple. It is super aromatic with cinnamon, the sappiness of the apple has completely evaporated from the sugar broth that it probably spent hours boiling in.
Next in line would have to be the tea flavoured angel cake. Very spongy and aromatic. This is an option to keep in mind if you're looking for something light, and something not too sweet.
The rest of the dessert isn't worth much mentioning nor trying.
On the side, we all ordered some kind of drink. Coffee is decent but nothing special. One of us ordered sparkling wine. Not that great.
Oh, and price? Yes, this is a place where you are also paying for the ambience. Service can definitely improve as they constantly mix up our orders, and dishes coming super late.
