Located in Devatha Plaza, bang opposite Bishop's Cotton Boys School, Happy Belly Bakes had my heart the moment I stepped in.
The walls are adorned with broken mugs, quotes on tiles & other quirky elements. With the big display unit right in the center, you start feasting with your eye immediately - Cupcakes, Pies, Cake Popsicles, Cheesecakes, Pastries, Sandwiches & much more. The lights are subtle which makes the café super cozy. Hanging in the corner are their crazy cakes.
We chose the comfy corner table & placed our orders. Started with coffee & hot chocolate – which were perfect – we moved to food.
Quinoa Bowl – Big bowl of Chickpeas (Kabuli Chana), Quinoa, finely chopped bell peppers topped with fresh pomegranates. Vibrant & Colourful. Paired with a Tahini dressing, this bowl was a treat to the eyes but lacked a little in flavor. Though the ingredients were super fresh, had different textures in every bite, it still needed a punch even after the tahini dressing. An amazing option for healthy eaters.
Corn & Spinach Focaccia Sandwich – I am a sucker for breads & the focaccia here is just perfect. Perfectly grilled, the bread has a nice crunch to it. The spinach & corn filling is very mild which enhances the flavour of the bread. This has to be my favourite dish here.
Mexican Burrito Roll – Wrapped in a tortilla, this roll is perfect as a takeaway. Soft tortilla bread is stuffed with smashed red beans, rice with pickled veggies. Again quite mild with the pickled veggie adding a little crunch & tanginess.
For desserts, we tried Chocolate Silk & the Rum Chocolate Square (don’t know the exact name). Justifying its name, the chocolate silk was smooth as silk & absolute melt-in-mouth. The Rum Square was packed with boozy flavor & when paired with dark chocolate, tasted amazing. The best part of the desserts was the balance in flavours – neither too sweet, nor bitter.
Happy Belly Bakes ensures it has something for everyone even if you are Vegan or following a Keto Diet. With their range of desserts, drinks, savory dishes you definitely won’t be disappointed. While the ambiance & service ensures you will have a comfortable meal, this place is a good option for pick & go.
On our way out I picked their hot chocolate mix & boy it was a great decision. Just follow the instructions & you will have the perfect cup of hot chocolate for yourself.
