cake partay...♥

yummy!

pa enjoyed the cake♥

at first, erika and i desperately wanted to get him some cake from "fumie's gold" cake shop in bellevue..(brand new, just opened, highly praised, supposed to be amazing!)

jamus and i tried the shop about a month ago and...it was so dang popular, all the cake sold out...

well... once again, no luck with scoring fumie's cake... :(

sold out by noon! there was a line! YARR!!

looks like i'm gonna have to deal with NOT sleeping in on a weekend in order to get some of fumie's cake :(

but we had back-up plans♥ Hiroki's bakery in wallingford. also owned by a japanese baker, also amazing-delicious cake!

here's what we got:

super rich chocolate-y cake. erika ate this one o(^_^)o

(after tasting all the cake) this one was by far the best! this was pa's special cake♥

tiramisu♥ the light one is green tea tiramisu♥

ma LOVED it!

this one was fun to look at :) erika is amazed by it's presence alone!

we also got to enjoy some shuumai, hand made by ma!

wow...it was way too good..i downed about 6 of these!

i requested for a vegetarian style for next time♥

i've gone cake crazy...!!

on sunday...(whilst everyone went to gameworks for ANOTHER street fighter tournament...) i went solo to greenlake/seattle to visit "hiroki" the japanese cake store <3

it was located in this cutesy neighborhood and i had no problem finding it. it was a tiny cafe with a rather small selection of cakes...BUT they had tiramisu ^_^ a bit pricey too i might add... 4 slices came to 25 bucks ! O_o pictured is the tiramisu, choco-banana and chestnut (chestnut?? hmm..interesting...) the dude who helped me out was this odd character...he was japanese, middle aged...long hair..chunky...tattoo-ed all up his arms...and sporting a floral apron... HAHA!!!! it was funny :) he actually cautioned me to keep the cakes refrigerated so i kinda freaked out and drove it up to my parents... i wanted to bring back the tiramisu for james but since it was sunny i guess it might've melted away :( i'll have to get some again

i gotta say tho..it's a hard to decide which tiramisu was better--the pegasus or hiroki...

the battle continues..!!!!
