La Promenade Patisserie — Restaurant in Sydney

Just had my meal here with my partner. I think the savoury items we had were very acceptable, but the pastries here are just phenomenal!

The choux pastry was quite light and fluffy, providing some slight crisp texture, and the (butter?) creams used in both the eclair and coffee relegious were not sweet at all.

Only downside is the open nature of the cafe means the traffic...

Many of the recipes they use today taste just like they did when I was a very young boy so long ago (e.g. the vanilla slice, cherry & strawberry fruit flans, lemon and almandine tarts, the style of sausage rolls). Quite an achievement for a business to have such a long stretch of consistency.

The pastry on the larger fruit flans has always been nice but you need to go earlier if you want a large fruit plan (particularly on a weekend) or order ahead.

Prices here are still reasonable, relative to competitors, given the rampant inflation experienced in the food industry since the...
