Ladies and gentlemen, the long-awaited Pablo is finally in town and joins the array of cheese tarts that have already built their names in the city. If you spent the last couple of years hidden in a coconut shell, well, Pablo is an Osaka-born sweet shop specialized in delicious fluffy cheese tart. The treat has spurred the hype Asian-wide and a visit to one of many Pablos in Osaka is like the Mecca for sweet devotees.
At the first Bangkok flagship in Siam Paragon, Pablo’s signature tart has become the city’s recent Instagram hit with people queuing for hours to have their bites of the cheesy goodie. The signature cheese tart definitely lives up to the hype, coming with crispy crust and rich oozing center glazed with apricot jam. Other flavors include Uji matcha filled with red bean paste and bitter-sweet chocolate. Mini tart version also makes a big sale, coming in two flavors — cheese and green tea.
There’s also a fancy version of tart that looks more like a crème brûlée cheese cake. In addition to tarts, the cheese also comes in form of other tasty treats like ice-cream, smoothies and mille-feuille.
