Apple tart at Pavilion Café
This intricately wrought apple pie (well, more of a strudel, actually) is served alongside wonderfully refreshing saffron-infused ice cream, and makes for a delightful conclusion to a meal at one of the most refreshing and interesting venues to have opened in the past year. Highly recommended.
