When we asked for the lemon tart, in addition to the bread M. had been looking forward to all day and the baguette I can't wait to make sandwiches with tonight, the guy behind the counter of Bien Cuit didn't even blink. He just put it in a box and we took it back to the office for afternoon snack. It took us about 3 bites before we stopped looking for the lemon and accepted it as what it was, a mango tart. It reminded me of a fancy version of the mango pudding served in dim sum restaurants. Naturally it was way more sophisticated with the toasted coconut bites and the slivers of mango.
