I had this sinfully rich chocolate dessert at Cafe on the Ridge at the
Tagaytay Vista Hotel. We ordered brewed coffee and I was in the mood for something sweet and comforting that cold afternoon. We waited for about thirty minutes for my dessert and when I followed up my order, the waitress apologized for the delay and promised to serve it in ten minutes. The chocolate cake, she explained, err... "erupted"... in a manner of speaking in the course of the baking process. They had to start over.

It was the hotel's signature dessert, unfortunately, I forgot what it's called. Chocolate lava cake, I think.... What I cannot forget though is the warm luscious chocolate that oozed out of the fresh out of the oven chocolate cake, a perfect contrast to accompanying scoop of vanilla ice cream. This sweet duo was drizzled with raspberry syrup which added a tangy kick. Oh, what a treat it was. Try it, I promise, it is worth going all the way south for.
