Stopped by at a good veggie shop, got some seedlings all on the way to Grounded Echo. It is great what 's happening in the suburb an almost little Woodstock vibe 'in die middel van Pretoria '.<br/ <br/ A month or so ago I went there to get the highly recommendable individual koeksister cheesecakes as take aways for a function only lemon ones were available . Not half as good as the koeksister one 's! Thus, I was holding my breath for mom 's expectation for carrot cake. <br/ <br/ Every time I walk in there, the vibe surprises me. There 's this energy of any City Bowl 'get your coffee in a hurry or a slow ' trendy outlet. The mom 's and their tots, the few slightly geriatric clientele (oh my word, is this politically correct? and the hipster students (most probably from the Tuks Medical campus all brings together what I may call Afrikaans towards cosmopolitan. <br/ <br/ Service as always very good, friendly and efficient. Products always fresh. We had our favorite Grounded coffee highly recommended. Mom had her carrot cake. It is indeed the best in town. It 's dense, moist, equally nutty and fruity and 'vegetably ' and has the perfect balance in terms of icing. <br/ <br/ What has always impressed me at Grounded is their options for the healthy eater. There 's options to upgrade any menu item to gluten free; banting friendly; low or zero sugar and they also have milk alternatives. It is a lovely, creative menu. <br/ <br/ In short, one of the best bakeries in town. One of the most thoughtful menu 's for healthy eaters or eaters suffering from allergies. Lots of creative energy. Alive the vibe. Street front charm.<br/ <br/ Ps: I could not resist taking something home. It was between banting rusk and ginger cookies. The latter won! They are little little mini cookies the cutest things on earth! Portion wisdom thank you Grounded!<br/ <br/ Ps ps: check out their online shop.
