Owned by Matthew Chow, this narrow minimalist store with all-white furnishings offers a menu that’s just as spare as the decor. The focus is simple ganache-topped chocolate cakes, which come in two sizes: Individual minis ($4) and 1kg-whole cakes ($48). Saturdays are for order collection only.

Eat this at Matt’s the Chocolate Shop: Chocolate cake. It's one of I-S Magazine's 50 things to eat before you die (2013).
