Tiramisu is from Italy, and it means “Cheer me up”! It is mainly made with mascarpone cheese, ladyfinger biscuits, coffee, and cocoa powder. Today we are going to look at a few (very best) tiramisu places you should try in Melbourne!
Grill Americano
It’s served in a large bowl and freshly scooped. The highlight is the addition of chocolate inside, which enhances the texture. It’s sweet with a hint of cocoa powder, and the moist cake and creamy texture melt in your mouth without needing to bite. The combination of alcohol and coffee is well-balanced, neither overpowering the other. The price is slightly higher compared to other places, but it’s worth it! Seriously, you have to come and try it!
Address: 112 Flinders Ln, Melbourne VIC 3000
