I was very happy to find out that
Café 1771 has the
Chateau Group's famous Coffee Pie. It is the only pastry that my husband and I do not share—we have to get one slice each. Any description I come up with will never be able to do it justice, but think creamy butter mixed with mocha ice cream, and you have an approximation of its melt-in-your-mouth texture and taste. Topped with caramel and more cream, on a chocolate and nut crust. Sinfully delicious.
And the reason for the treat: we're arriving home this afternoon! Whee! I'm sure we had a grand time in Toronto (this is still a scheduled post so I can only guess), but the saying is very true: there's no place like home. I will be glad to sleep in our lumpy ol' bed again.

Rich! I would like this pie.
I think I just gained a pound looking at this awesome coffee pie. Welcome home Hilda, I hope you and your husband enjoyed spending time with your family.
That pie sounds delicious.
We are waiting to hear some of your Canadian adventures and maybe share a few photos.
Welcome home.
Ah, the sweet taste of homecoming. Welcome back.
Oohh, ahhh, Hilda, Please post me one of those delicious looking slices for morning tea.
Hey, move over! Can I try a little bite of that killer dessert?!
Welcome home from Canada! I hope you get a good night's sleep in your lumpy ol' bed in Manila!

Yummy! Can I have some? :) Welcome home.
Welcome home! I hope you had a fun vacation in Canada. This dessert looks delicious! I can see why you don't like to share it ;o)
That looks scrumptious! Thank goodness the cals are only virtual.
I am wishing you a welcome home and hope the jet lag is short lived. Hope you had a super time in Canada.

It looks yummy Hilda and now I'm hungry after seeing this picture. I know you must be exhausted from your travels and I can't wait to hear all about your trip!
Looks great! But I think your fork is missing, Hilda ;D
Sounds good!
I hope you had a pice of this the first day home.
Welcome back Hilda!
Coffee pie! Sounds great. Love the outline of the fork.
That's the way we like it! NICE!!!!!!
If I ate this, I'd not be able to eat anything else for a week. But, then, it might be worth it. Lovely shot, Hilda...love the way you worked that fork in there.
Oh, my!
This looks like it would drive your taste buds right into a frenzy!
