Tarta (VivoCity)

Perhaps it's because Bake was the very first encounter I'd had with a baked cheese tart, it's hard to find another whose impact measures up to that.

As objectively as I can say, though, this one from Tarta holds its own pretty well against the branded frontrunner's. The pastry is crumbly and buttery, not too hard nor dry, and boasts an even golden tan; the cream cheese mousse is well-balanced and rich without being cloying. I daresay this is one of the better cheese tarts out there.
