I love this charming sign. For some reason it makes me think that the official name of this place should be Otto Cake - F*ck Yeah.
(Friendly tip: if you plan on venturing there I suggest approaching from the mauka side as there is a spot along Smith St. that reeks of urine and poo. Seriously. Same spot. Every day.)
So cuuuuuuuuuuute! Insider's tip: Otto is planning on making something chocolate dipped with these for Halloween.
But the cheesecake is the real star of this ensemble. Otto does not have a heavy hand with these cakes. Not too rich, but with enough body to make you feel as if you're getting your money's worth at $5.00 a slice. Smooth and satisfying. The crust was the perfect consistency. Just mushy enough for my taste but not soggy. A great pick me up for those 3:00 work doldrums. Flavors vary, depending on what's sold out. I'm stalking him for this alleged chocolate peanut butter cheesecake I've heard about but as of yet to no avail.See what I mean? Otto Cake - F*ck Yeah.
Don't let the size fool you. Dowtown Design Buddy and I split a slice. This is the Lemon Cheesecake.
All in all it's a good cheesecake that's a little on the pricey side. But where else are you going to get cheesecake in Chinatown? Exactly. Now, I need to pop in there and ask Otto when's the next time The 86 List is putting on another Hedwig and the Angry Inch show. Now THAT is a treat no one should miss out on.Otto Cake
