This little number got me over the mid week hump, but unlike its looks it was far from traditional. I was impressed with the attention to detail on the product based upon the huge chain's normal fast and mast mass produced items. The neatly presented mille-feuille slice boasted dark, well defined layers of pastry, a rich, yellow custard and a decorative, glossy icing. Weirdly, the tastes were far from expected. The pastry tasted more like a buttery shortbread biscuit, with a slight crunch, the filling left me confused as to its actual content (other than sugar) and the icing actually didn't taste of anything.
