As Abraham Lincoln once said, “I didn’t come here to party… I only came for the cake.” Or maybe it was FloRida who said it, and maybe he wasn’t actually talking about cake (I never did fully understand all of that rap lingo). Anyways, let’s get to the point of this citation… I LOVE CAKE…and I always have.
Because of this, it’s only natural that I have scoped out all the places where I can find the cakes that I like, you know the ones with lots of thick frosting (please don’t tell me you’re one of those that scrapes off the frosting). Frosting lover or not, if you’re a cake person too, and you happen to be in Amman, you don’t want to miss the following places…
