Shortstop Donuts & Coffee (Sydney)

A short post for a short visit at Short Stop Donuts in Sydney.

Short Stop has now opened its first store in Sydney's Barangaroo precinct. Among the new high end offices (where my clients are), the queues are rather long during the work week.

I have tried 3 donuts so far: chocolate-mandarin, honey and sea salt, and earl grey and rose. They are all unique and delicious in their own right. I did enjoy the earl grey and rose with my long black the most though.

Much recommended if you eat in with a coffee order and sit outdoors on a fine day.

Anvil Coffee Co (Artarmon Sydney)

On a day off to take the baby for her health check, wife and I checked in to the nearby Anvil Coffee Co for brunch. It is a place recently listed as one of the top 50 cafes to visit in Sydney.

Coffee was nicely brewed and the food was really good. The rueben sandwich was generous and 'Arabian' style egg was an innovative idea. The setting was industrial and no-frills - probably the reason to attract many tradies customers.

The Bentley at Radisson Blu (Sydney)

An impromptu steak and dessert evening led us to a quick dinner at The Bentley inside the Radisson Blu hotel in Sydney.

Even for a 2 course meal we were given an amush which was a delight. The fillet steak was very well cooked. And dessert was nicely balanced with all the right textures.
