My husband and I ordered this dessert to share. The phyllo (in Greek: φύλλο, pronounced FEE-lo) wrapping was an add-on for $2.00. The idea seemed like a good one. The results were not. Although attractively plated the wafer-thin flaky topping and the warmed cheesecake inside was stomach churning. Think of a warmed chocolate cream cheese packaged up in a dry crust. The presentation was attractive, but I hope the kitchen rethinks this one. Cheesecake should be served cool.
Why not shred and bake the phyllo golden, then drench it in honey? You can mound that material on top, and put an almond crusted cheesecake below. A nod to the Greek gods and a better pairing in my view?
