Sunday in Sydney

I spent the morning with my family in Balmain enjoying the beautiful Sydney weather.

We stopped at Adriano's (Adriano Zumbo Patissier) to grab a quick take away breakfast.

I ordered the, blueberry and goats cheese tart and my partner had the capsicum and pesto quiche.

I couldn't resist grabbing a famous Adriano dessert masterpiece for Bella. A cookies and cream biscuit with chantilly creme and liquid dark chocolate center (for after breakfast of course!)


The food was amazing as usual. I love Adriano's unusual combinations and creativity with flavours. 

 I'm always intrigued by the macaroon cabinet. The flavours are so unusual !

Have you ever heard of - bloody Mary macaroons ?? or rosemary macaroons??
or
pancakes and maple syrup  macaroons?

That's right didn't think so.


 Its definitely worth checking out .. Just down the street is his cafe -also worth checking out. 
 His bitter sweet hot chocolate is amazing - as are the African spice & walnut sausage rolls!


I will definitely be re-creating the blueberry and goats cheese tart at home !
 :-)
(ill tell you how it goes, hopefully well !)
 lol 

PS. Adriano Zumbo is the pasty chef from the Master Chef Series* who created the famous V8 cake

- The line does get long and the store does run out from time to time - so its best to visit early,  
plus you'll get it fresh !

Anyway .. grabbed a morning coffee and strolled around the boutiques for a while whilst enjoying brekfast. Spent the rest of the morning lounging in the sun at the park and then took a trip to Manly. 

Sunday as it should be !
