@ 615 King Street, Erskinville
This cafe is found at the very end of King Street near Sydney Park and St Peter's train station. At first I thought it was purely a cafe, but upon entering the whole back wall is covered with breads for purchase and there is a basket at the front selling cookies by the bulk.
At first glance, this place is nothing special. White walls and decor and a smallish interior. It can sit a maximum of 15 people comfortable enough but on a Saturday morning it attract more takeaway orders than most from joggers seeking that early morning fix.
The variety of baked goods for a place this small is quite astounding. From crossants to muffins to breads to brownies to cupcakes, there's something delectable for everyone here. The service was nice though being caught in the early morning rush, they had to be prompted to deliver my muffin. A coffee and a banana muffin is what was on order. The coffee was well brewed and the muffin nicely baked, although didn't taste too heavily of banana (not quite sure if that's a good or a bad thing). In the end, I couldn't finish it. It was way to heavy and way to big for the little un to complete.

One girl's gastromonic endeavour to conquer King Street, Newtown, a strip of over one-hundred cafes, bars and restaurants.
Walking down King Street in Newtown, one of Sydney's oldest suburbs, one's senses can become completely overwhelmed. Despite its colourful boutiques and a seemingly endless array of second-hand book stores, it's the tastebuds that really get the work-out with the strip's vast line of culinary delights. I've walked King Street many times and have counted over 140 pubs, restuarants and cafes along it.
These never stay static either. Constantly changing, upgrading, renaming and expanding one can always expect a new gastronomic adventure to greet them when visiting King Street.
Well, I'm determined to end that and achieve the near impossible: to feast from every restaurant/cafe/bar on King Street and live to tell the tale.
