Brandon is super helpful and very friendly and the third generation of family making delicious cakes, pies and sweet treats. Tried the butter and vanilla cakes, both were excellent although I believe vanilla was my favorite. The cakes are extremely light and have a soft mouth feel, I really enjoyed the consistency and prefer it over some of the very dense pound cake I've had in the past. The taste will conjure up childhood memories for anyone raised in the south. It is a convenient location near Kickback Jacks and Ghassan's. Once you try it, you'll know why they were featured recently in the O'Henry magazine. You need to give them a try!!

First, to help you understand how my experience went, I had not had cheesecake (which I love) since…read moregoing plant-based in December 2017. I only went to Cheesecakes by Alex because it was the meeting place selected by someone I was meeting with. I thought I would grab a tea, have the meeting, and then leave. However, nothing went as planned. Lol First, I am a "sucker" for eclectic vibes, which is the ambiance that the Elm St. location gives. The inside has a large mural on the wall, it has rustic flooring and furniture, and it is nothing like what I had pictured. I thought I would encounter a more "refined" place where everyone had their pinky in the air because of how everyone raved about Alex and his freaking cheesecake. Gracious! I completely understand now. I mean, I get it. Lol So after the meeting, this roughly drawn menu reeled me in because it had CHAI TEA. That's my jam. Once I had a sip of my delicious hot Chai tea with almond milk, I KNEW everything else was probably tasty, so I (in a reserved way) ordered an apple muffin. The muffin smelled divine, so I inquired (because I HAD to lol) about the best-selling cheesecakes. The cashier smiled at me and directed me to the Bourbon Pecan and the White Chocolate Raspberry flavored cheesecakes. They were $6 per slice, and I couldn't decide, so I had her pack both. I had a long day planned, so I had to take the slices home and refrigerate them. I almost forgot about them until around 10:30 when I had a sweet craving, and...have mercy! BOTH cheesecakes were velvety smooth, flavorful, and decadent. The Bourbon Pecan was heavenly. I could definitely taste its unique flavor pairings, and it had enough pecans. I also loved the buttery crust. The White Chocolate Raspberry was rich and creamy, with the tang of the raspberry exactly where and when you need it in every bite. I had to take bites out of each, you know, to treat them fairly. Lol Although I paid dearly for eating too much dairy, it was worth the experience. Sometimes, you just have to eat the lactose pill and jump in! I'm so glad I did. Now you know that Cheesecakes by Alex is Kiesha Speech approved. Hands down, they are bringing more than flavor. Cheesecakes by Alex is bringing the "flava!" I hear there are several locations in NC. I hope you can try one near you.

Stopped by Savor the Moment Dessert Bar (after a disappointing brunch elsewhere) and let's just…read moresay...they understood the assignment. We grabbed several cheesecakes to go, and every single one was absolutely delicious--rich, creative flavor combinations, and clearly made with care. The kind of desserts that make you pause mid-bite and say, "okay, now THIS is good." The service was just as sweet--friendly, welcoming, and helpful without missing a beat. If you're in the mood for a treat (or a few), this is definitely the place. We will be back...because one visit was not enough.

The sweet potato pancakes were really good, and the steak and eggs surprised me because the steak portion was huge and cooked really well. The avocado toast was also delicious, and even something simple like the eggs and cheese tasted amazing -- they really know how to make good scrambled eggs there. I also thought it was really cool that they had a little French market section where you can shop for French products while you're there. Most of the mimosas were really good too, and on Sundays they're only $5, which was a nice bonus. The wait time was definitely long -- over an hour and a half -- but honestly, the food and overall experience made it feel worth it in the end!
