I have a Facebook group called "Hole In The Wall: New England" where I write about all kinds of…read moreplaces that are 1. A little hidden away or off the beaten track, and 2. Amazing discoveries. This place fits the bill under both categories! Many years ago, before I moved to Worcester, my friend made me follow an Instagram account that was basically carb porn. Day after day, I'd check out their bizarre and scrumptious cupcake flavors, fantasizing about the day that I'd make it there. Back then, Worcester felt like a such a pain to get to that it took me a while to get there. But when I finally found this tiny little place tucked away on Water St, it was like that moment in Willy Wonka where Charlie is aghast at all the sugary delights around him. It was every frosted fantasy come to life. I try not to go TOO often, because I don't want to be condemned to a life of stretchy pants. But when I do go, it's a serious struggle not to try every creative confection in their case. Their treats are INCREDIBLE.

That's don't impress me much!…read more That's the feeling I have. Queens Cup has been on my list for about 3 years. I admit, I am weak for frosting so I figured this had to be a win for me. Good location, tough parking if you can't get in their small lot and good luck scoring a table (i think there were only 2!) But that's not the reason for disappointment. It's the product. Magic cookie bars are one of my favorite sweet treats so I had to buy one (at a high cost of $7!) It's heavy and dense but the flavor... the crust was inconsistent. Too thick and too think at points. The taste... it tastes like an M&M (with a slight hint of coconut.) I could have saved myself a lot of money just buying a bag of M&M's. But I don't like M&M's! See the problem? (And there were small M&M's on the top which is ok but it was overpowering.) I also had to try something cupcake related right? My daughter got a huge slice of funfetti cake. I had one layer of the cake. I can share the frosting was thick and dense. I like it sweet and melts in my mouth. Thus was not that. The cake itself was dense too. I was my cake fluffy. Overall I was let down and Queens Cup is off the return list.

We certainly didn't have any room for dessert after the food at Margaritas. So we decided to walk…read morethe downtown streets before getting into the car to head back over to the b&b we stayed in. After a few blocks, we were intrigued by this store and wandered in. Lots of candy - reminded me a little of Economy Candy in NYC (iykyk) except very spacious instead of that crowded space on the Lower East Side. But towards the back, they have ice cream...one of my weaknesses. There were maybe 6 or 8 hard ice cream flavors plus some soft serve. Still pretty full, we shared just one scoop of "Maine Black Bear," very similar to my favorite Brattleboro Blueberry Haus Vermont Black Bear; vanilla ice cream with raspberry swirls and jam plus some chocolate chunks (VT version has chocolate raspberry filled!). Hit the spot for just a little sweetness after a well-seasoned dinner!

I…read morecalled him on a Thursday morning asking if he could do a dozen lemon cupcakes for my son's first birthday and have them ready by Saturday - a real last minute order. He said he wouldn't have time to add custom decorations, but I had an idea and had him frost 11 in green and 1 in red. When I picked them up on Saturday, he added two cookies to the box. I also ordered a meat pie and a kofta wrap and while I was waiting, he gave me two pieces of warm baklava, fresh from the oven! Absolutely delicious. When everything was ready, he carried it out to my car for me, since I had the stroller. He's such a kind man. And oh my gosh... possibly the best cupcakes I've ever had. The frosting was light and more buttery than sweet. I usually take the frosting off of cupcakes but I didn't this time because it was just too good. The lemon curd center was tangy and just the right level of sweetness. I will return to Michael's for every birthday/anniversary/party from now on. Oh and that meat pie is going to live in my brain forever. So aromatic and delicious... I got it for my husband but had eaten half of it by the time I got home. Whoops!

I couldn't figure out from the photos on Google what the parking situation was here, so let me be…read morethe first to let you know that this coffee shop is in a plaza/strip mall with a large public shared lot - yay! The decor of this shop is delightful - there's a beautiful, colorful mural on the wall and lots of gorgeous plants. The tile on the coffee counter makes me feel like I'm on an exotic vacation. This is clearly a spot people love to hang out and get work done as almost every table - both inside and in the outdoor area - was full with someone on a laptop working on Labor Day, and I can see why - the vibes are great and the music is relaxing. There's an overall scent of spice and fancy coffee. I was really excited to see an Ube Shaken Espresso on the seasonal summer menu, so that's what I ordered - made with almond milk. The cashier that took my order was very polite and let me know that the ube cold foam was made with heavy cream and asked if that was ok. A glutton for anything ube, I said yes - however, I found it had a strong milk flavor that kind of overpowered the ube notes more than I'd like. The drink could have also been a little sweeter, I wonder if there was a flavored syrup or ube syrup I could have added. They had both dessert and food options, including a lot of Halal empanada options that looked delicious. I'd like to go back to try more of what is on the menu and see what's on their next seasonal menu - the Yemeni teas would be of interest, as well as the baked goods. I will certainly keep it in mind next time I'm in the area, it's a cozy spot with unique offerings you don't see in many places locally!

Tiramisu: Although not Southeast Asian, it's equally excellent! The coffee infused the cake, and the cream was smooth and creamy.

We have had 2 occasions where the (absolutely delicious) pandan coconut cake got a little dented or melted/partly destroyed. The first time we kind of just overlooked it because maybe it was bumped during the car ride or something, but the second time the layers of the cake were actually collapsing and it seemed like the top might slide off, and there were no real bumps during the car ride. The one time we ordered the ube cake this didn't happen, and I think I recall it came with a stiff plastic sheet around it to help with structural integrity. For some reason this wasn't there for the pandan cakes, but maybe for the future it should always be there because these cakes are so soft and fluffy.
