The dish was only on the breakfast menu, but when I asked for it, at around 1730 hrs on a Friday afternoon, it appeared miraculously in front of me.

The restaurant’s maître d’ hotel, a delightful lady, presented it with a glorious smile.

The guys in the open kitchen were watching knowingly.

I was in heaven! The divine pudding was made earlier this day.
