A woman at work made us the most amazing cheesecake I’ve ever had last week. I don’t think anything I could eat today would ever compare so a drawing:

Cheesecake is interesting in that it’s been around foooorever and so many cultures have their own versions of it. Perhaps it is just something that humans need.

My favourite kinds are pumpkin cheesecake and a pistachio no-bake cheesecake that my mother makes. Your basic New York-style is good too but if I have it, a lot is riding on the crust and toppings.

According to wikipedia, there is a “Vancouver-style” cheesecake.

Vancouver-style cheesecake is a light, airy style made without a crust, primarily in vanilla and chocolate and often served refrigerated with various local fruit toppings such as British Columbia strawberries, raspberries and cherries.

I wasn’t totally aware of that but while discussing places to eat cheesecake in the city today, a coworker mentioned most of them having a lighter cheesecake. But no crust?? I don’t know. One of the most incredible characteristic of desserts is layers.
