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.
