Dessert Pop-Up:

Kēki, a cheesecake café established in summer 2020, introduced the Basque cheesecake sensation, famed for its burnt exterior and creamy interior, drawing customers in with its visual appeal and taste. Founded by seasoned sushi chef Tim Wong, who appreciated the "ultra Instagrammable" and delicious qualities of the cakes, the café sees customers frequently returning for more. Keki bakers each add their personal touch, creating subtly varying textures in the cakes. Using top-quality ingredients like cream from Alexandre Family Farm, they infuse unique flavors such as black sesame and kumquats, promising a symphony of taste and a memorable experience for every cheesecake enthusiast.
