Say Cheesecake This Valentine's with the Limited Edition White Chocolate Burnt Basque Cheesecake by El Born La Pastisseria

Chef David Amoros, the man behind the cheesecake everyone's talking about, hears you loud and clear as El Born opens its newest spinoff at Mitsukoshi Mall in BGC. Say cheese, make that the Limited Edition White Chocolate Burnt Basque Cheesecake by El Born La Pastisseria this Valentine's... 

The still raging cheesecake wars heats up this Valentine's as Chef David Amoros unveils his indulgent Limited Edition White Chocolate Burnt Basque Cheesecake at the new El Born La Pastisseria down in Basement 1 of Mitsukoshi Mall. The opening of El Born La Pastisseria is an undeniable validation of the popularity of El Born's signature cheesecake creations. Now with a separate store showcasing his lavish repertoire of cheesecake creations for take-out, Chef David Amoros opens a new and exciting phase in the resumption of the cheesecake wars. 

Located at Basement 1 of Mitsukoshi Mall, the new El Born La Pastisseria promises to be high up on your list of cheesecake destinations. In an unexpected yet welcome twist, the Burnt Basque Cheesecake creations of Chef David Amoros became one of many must-try attractions at the Catalan restaurant located in the second floor of the same mall (more on El Born on my post, Heart & Soul: Savor The Flavors of Authentic Catalan Cuisine at El Born in Mitsukoshi BGC from two years back). So popular were the cheesecakes that a new spot dedicated to the Burnt Basque style of cheesecakes by Chef David Amoros seemed to be the logical next step. 

At El Born La Pastisserie, cheesecakes in a variety of renditions and sizes take the spotlight from the Original Burnt Basque Cheesecake that eventually triggered the metro's cheesecake wars to inventive variants like the Chocolate & Hazelnut. This is the newest stage of Chef David Amoros for his stellar cast of cheesecakes. The line of cheesecakes are available in four sizes starting with a Slice (P P 395), the Mini (P 895), Medium (P 2,370-6 Slices) and Whole (P 3,160-8-10 Slices). 

For Valentine's, Chef David Amoros draws inspiration from the decadent weave of flavors with white chocolate, creamy cheese, raisins and just a hint of Pedro Ximėnez Spanish sherry wine... 

...coming together in a delicately balanced finish with multiple layers of indulgent sweetness seamlessly caressing your palate with each bite. With the Original Burnt Basque Cheesecake as the luscious silky smooth base, the addition of white chocolate, raisins and Spanish sherry wine brings distinctive yet nuanced notes for an ever richer cheesecake expression by Chef David Amoros. 

And the result? A Burnt Basque Cheesecake unlike any other. And you can bet people will be talking about this particular cheesecake long after Valentine's. 

The presence of plump raisins against a delicately charred surface gives this Valentine's creation a unique look. But it's that first spoonful that transforms your Burnt Basque Cheesecake experience in that rustic yet often unexpected signature style of Chef David Amoros. 

The familiar creamy richness of the cheesecake melts on the palate soon followed by the lingering deep sweet hints of white chocolate and raisins perfectly complemented by the complex sweetness of Spanish sherry wine adding a flavorful depth. The Mini White Chocolate Burnt Basque Cheesecake is best shared by two for Valentine's, but if you ask me I'll claim that Mini for myself. 

The opening of El Born La Pastisseria is this year's opening salvo in the cheesecake wars and the staging point for exciting new creations by Chef David Amoros. Let Valentine's be your target date to experience pure Burnt Basque Cheesecake indulgence by Chef David Amoros at El Born La Pastisseria. 

But better hurry. Available only from February 7 to 16, the Limited Edition White Chocolate Burnt Basque Cheesecake with raisins and Spanish sherry wine will only be in the chillers for a week. Bring your date or not, your Limited Edition White Chocolate Burnt Basque Cheesecake is waiting for you at El Born La Pastisseria.
