In Search of the Perfect Krémes--2

Today we tried Auguszt Cukrászda, another of the locations recommended in the Wall Street Journal article. 

The building was vintage and the seating area cozy... Non-smoking too which is always nice and not typical here.

Even though it wasn't our favorite, you'll notice our plates are empty

We sat by the front window in Europen looking arm chairs.

Along the wall they had benches and a small narrow stair case led to a small loft area.

The desserts can be viewed before purchase.

The wait staff weren't overly friendly, but OK.

Quite a chandelier

This Krémes was 480ft. per slice (less than $2.50).

It was full of rich yellow custard with three layers of flaky pastry instead of the traditional two, and that was nice. But we preferred the Krémes at Maródi (which was about 75 cents cheaper per slice). Maródi's layer of whipped cream made it taste lighter and fresher overall. But the pastry on this offering was definitely well-prepared.
