As we all know, yesterday, February 14 was Valentine's Day. A day typically known for hallmark cards along with generic roses and chocolate. I, on the other hand, received a strawberry cheesecake from Eileen's Special Cheesecake in New York City. Eileen's, known for it's cheesecakes has been rated the best all around cheesecake by many food critics.
Clearly, my boyfriend knows just the way to my heart as strawberry cheesecake is one of my all time favorite desserts. Visually, it's very appealing with the heart-shaped cut out and carefully placed strawberries. The strawberry glaze is delicious and the strawberries taste amazingly fresh. The melt-in-your mouth cheesecake has the perfect texture (which is very important to me when it comes to cheesecake). This is by far the best cheesecake I've ever had. My only complaint is that I can't stop eating it!
I've never had Eileen's Special Cheesecake before yesterday, but I must say I'm definitely a loyal fan already. After looking at the menu I'm debating whether or not to take a trip there this weekend. Check out the menu here. If you have any special occasion coming up, I would definitely recommend ordering from Eileen's which has an overnight express to anywhere in the U.S. in case you can't make the trip to the city.
Eileen's Special Cheesecake is located in the city at 17 Cleveland Place, opposite Spring and Lafeyette Street. The bakery is open every day Monday-Friday from 8am till 9pm; Saturday and Sunday from 10am till 7pm.
