Grumpy Baker - Marrickville

There is just so many new cafes opening at Marrickville lately but this new one (well. it's not really classified as "new" since there's two other shops that is located in Sydney - Castle Cove and Vaucluse).

Grumpy Baker happens to open just 5 minutes from my workplace, so I decided to give it a shot. In my opinion, I reckon it is situated in the most quiet place ever. It's smack bang in the middle of all the mechanics, that street is dead during the day.

Sign pointing to the shop on Meeks Street 

Pastries on the table - chocolate croissant, chocolate muffins, cheese sticks and friands 

And their bread selection that is baked daily 

Bought myself a chocolate croissant, it was just delicious. The coffee was pretty good, I will definitely return back to try out their bread.

Devon Cafe, Surry Hills

Went to Devon Café at Surry Hills, early on Sunday with a group of friends.  There was no wait when we arrived,  immediately got a table at the back.

The waiter got to us very fast and asked us if we needed coffee,  ordered myself a latte. 

My friend ordered us the popular Ferrero Rocher muffin for the table, which was just delicious.  There was a bit of chocolate melting out from it. Will definitely order it again next time I'm back.
