Cheesecake Machismo — Restaurant in City of Albany

The gift of cheesecake.

Received a cheesecake from my old man who had stopped in at Cheesecake Machismo, which had a very impressive selection of cakes to pick from. I imagine they must just have a cake base they start with, and then dress it up to match the flavor.

The one I received was the Lemon Blueberry. The flavor of the cake was on the lighter side, not as sharp as some cheesecakes and not as sweet either, falling squarely in the center. The texture was also quite soft, not crumbly or dry, closer to a soft clay. The topping, the blueberry & lemon, was refreshing and fruity. However it did not blend well with the cake, the two remained their own unique flavors in my mouth. Which I think was due to the consistency of the cake being a little too impenetrable to the jell of fruits, could be enjoyable, but not if you're expecting cohesion.

Overall, the cake was nice, lighter in both sweetness and density. A pretty good...

I can't put into words how amazing this place is! Even flavors that I wouldn't think I would care for I will try out and they are amazing. Any time I get a slice it takes me like an hour to eat it because with each bite I have to talk about how delicious it is. You also get a coffee with each cheesecake slice, somehow their coffee is equally as amazing as their cheesecake! I selfishly wish that they were open early in the morning just for coffee. The owners are always extremely nice and personable. The inside is cute and interesting, there is cool stuff all over the walls to look at while you wait for your slice of heaven or sit and enjoy your slice with coffee. I could go on for days about how great this place is! Always new flavors to enjoy! Will never get tired of it and is a major factor of why I could never imagine giving up...
