The closure is slowly loosening, the days are getting hot and the Pentecost is opening, sounds like three really good reasons for a picnic, sort of. So "Daily Delivery" wore a holiday and spent with a pampering picnic basket in the middle of the office, and no, it's not as bad as you think. Let's start with the confession, as a playful bitch owner, the writer's affair with "Garden Cafe Story" lasts quite a while, because it's a "pro dog" place that cares for the pet just as much as the person. However, we came here to discuss the delivery of a picnic basket, we looked forward to the good and as you will read later in the article we certainly received it.
Let's start with the packaging and the exterior look. The delivery came in a traditional straw basket, as you can see in the picture, and even without knowing what was inside, we received a roaring feeling of a slightly different experience that awaits us. The items themselves were well packaged, heat and cold were kept where needed, and a glass bottle with squeezed orange juice was also added to the food. The orange juice came hot but that is forgiven for the simple reason that we review a product that is sold for self-collection only and judge other parameters accordingly. The oranges rested a bit in the freezer and came back to us chilled, fresh and delicious.
At CCP (is it an acronym for Garden Garden Cafe, have we exaggerated?) Allowing a great deal of flexibility in the selection of picnic baskets, but the basic structure includes pasta, pizza or focaccia, salad and a natural bottle of juice. A truffle pizza, truffle margarita focaccia accompanied by a garden salad, caprese salad and black forest pasta, a celebration of carbohydrates for damn weather, blessed creator of the air conditioners.
The portions themselves came in at the right temperature, the focaccia kept accurate crispiness and the salad came fresh and fresh. In addition, the fact that the salads of the salads came separately from the salads themselves managed to keep the vegetables dry and not soaked in the sauce and even gave us the option to control the gravy in the dish.
The truffle pungi pizza included excellent dough with truffle cream sauce and topped with a respectable amount of mushrooms and rocket leaves. It was delicious, and whoever tells you there is such a thing as "too much mushroom" is lying. In contrast, the margarita choco focaccia with the tomato sauce and cheese was a little more difficult to stand the test. The overall taste was good but the feeling was of a bit of a miss. Focaccia had all the ingredients to be a smashing success, but the combination was a bit banal and boring.
The caprese salad was large and sufficient for distribution, full of goodies, rich in ingredients including cherry tomato mix, kalamata olives, mozzarella cheese and the a la Romana artichoke highlight that upgraded the dish. The vegetables came fresh, well cut and the balsamic sauce complemented the flavors.
And lastly, the dish we loved the most was the one we told others that it was not something to keep from getting close and leaving us all - the black forest pasta. Radiator pasta, painted in black wrapped in white with caramelized cream butter sauce of onion and teriyaki that just makes you savor every bite. The pasta was not too heavy in spite of the fatty sauce, no ingredient in the dish overcame the overall taste and the combination of everything just created a celebration. It should be noted that the dish itself was slightly sweet due to the teriyaki and the more delicate flavors might be less appropriate.
Our overall experience from the office picnic was great in the end. After all, having a picnic is not a fun and warm thing, so why not love a picnic in the air conditioner? However, the feeling is that the picnic enclosure lacks some "closure". Something like a fruit salad, or dessert that the sun won't destroy in ten minutes. On the other hand, next time we may order from the Garden Cafe a whole basket story that is all packets of black forest pasta and then no longer has room for dessert. In the meantime, picnic in the air conditioner, Garden Cafe story, highly recommend.
