As if East­er com­ing isn’t enough (I hear the cin­na­mon bun­nies at Bohemein are hop­ping out the door again), we now have more sweet deli­cious­ness on offer around the city.

Louis S cakesFirstly the new ven­ture on Feath­er­ston Street in the old Capri space – Louis Ser­geant Sweet Cou­ture.  By (you’ll nev­er guess…) Louis Ser­geant, the until-recently head patis­ser­ie chef at Hip­po­pot­amus.  You can get all man­ner of deli­cious after­noon tea French sweet things to have with your tea or bubbles, or a range of salads, sand­wiches (baguette style), and plat­ters.  Works of art in a very Parisi­an-feel­ing set­ting.  Tues­day to Sat­urday day­times at the mo, with an 8pm fin­ish on Fri­days (mmmm, fro­mage with warm bread fresh from the oven and bubbles to cel­eb­rate the start of the week­end….). 

cancan-signThen the re-emer­gence of Newtown’s French Can­can patis­ser­ie into the former Chill space up Wil­lis Street, just before Dix­on.  Can­can had a huge fol­low­ing at New­town, so we don’t ima­gine they’ll struggle for cus­tom city­wide.  Deli­cious pastries, and tasty quiches and tarts (also now avail­able at Moore Wilson).  Due to open on 14 April.  East­er fin­gers crossed.

And just to prove I’m not only on a French jun­ket this week, Dough Momma (yep her of the deli­cious sweet pies avail­able weekly via her face­book page or at the City Mar­ket from time to time) pair­ing up with the Miramar Wooden Spoon ice cream­ery girls to make cook­ie ice cream sand­wiches, now avail­able at Moore Wilson.  What bet­ter way to fol­low one’s hot roas­ted chick­en from the Chook Wag­on.
