Sit under the verandah at Lulaba and study  their tropical cake and the house across the road, both are classic takes.  There is whimsey and substance in each. Most times if you asked me I'd say No Thanks to a cake with pineapple in it, but in thise case, and place, thinking off it like that splash of yellow on the facade of this Federation belle across the street, I happily said yes. Sometimes odd angles are the best, eg the pruning of the tree & the glace ginger in the cake.
