The Apricot Tree Cafe

There are times when we are soul searching, we want to find comfort in an establishment and comfort in their food. When I first walked into The Apricot Tree Cafe -with my good friend Taylor who joined me on this venture- I knew that it would be special. The service is outstanding and the atmosphere is warm, cultured, and suave. Let me take this opportunity to elaborate. The atmosphere is somewhat magical where friends and family meet to enjoy life, have deep conversations, and connect over exotic cuisine. This is the kind of place that you can have a romantic evening with that special someone, or a night out with good friends, or even bring beloved family members.

The Apricot Tree Cafe is located at 1900 Dundas Street West, Mississauga
(The courtyard leading into The Apricot Tree is magnificent.) 

The Apricot Tree is well known for its selection of unique desserts. During my visit I ordered the 'Warm Chocolate Hazelnut cake' which was superb. The texture was velvet-like and the taste was rich and smooth with an even chocolate to hazelnut ratio.  Excellent presentation with strawberry carpaccio and chocolate and vanilla drizzle.

My dear friend Taylor ordered the 'Apricot Crêpe' She said "It was tasty! and not too sweet. The pistacio and apricot mousse in the crepe was pleasantly mellow and tart. I loved the apricot ice cream and chutney. All in all a very classy dessert" 

I highly recommend The Apricot Tree Cafe for those seeking classy and magical environments to bring people you care about. I know that I will be returning.

La Villa Fine Foods & Bakery

    Today on my quest for another sweet spot to write about my aunt Florence joins me, because this type of research is so difficult I thought I would outsource for a second opinion.

Much of the time while traveling great things are found by accident. After several failed attempts driving around Mississauga searching for a unique place to write about and getting lost once, We found La Villa. A family owned bakery on Lakeshore East residing at 331B

The experience at La Villa was nice I could feel the family atmosphere, quite fitting since I was with my aunt. They sell fine foods and imported products but they also have a bakery filled with luscious Italian treats to stare in awe of and become baffled at where to start. 

We both had Sicilian Cannoli which was very authentic and delicious, my aunt had a pecan tart which she said was "really good" and I had an almond tart which was rich in flavor and exquisite. I will definitely be visiting again.

  

 The moral of the story is get lost and you will find great places.
