Basque-style burnt cheesecake has taken the world by storm recently, and we can totally understand why!
While regular cheesecake is undoubtedly a great dessert, burnt cheesecake adds an extra dimension of richness by bringing out a wider range of textures and flavours in every bite. If you have yet to try out this latest craze or are looking to satiate your cravings for burnt cheesecake but don’t know where to even look, we’ve got you covered!
Check out where you can get your hands on a good slice of burnt cheesecake in the Klang Valley below;

Alright, we cannot go ahead with this list without giving a spot for The Tokyo Restaurant’s 6th Avenue Cheesecake. Situated smack in the middle of Bukit Bintang, The Tokyo Restaurant provides a zen escape from the hustle and bustle of the city with its dimly lit, laid-back ambience.
Add their delicious burnt cheesecake topped with a dollop of cream, this definitely makes a rich dessert that will change your life!
