Fancy a French breakfast around lower North Shore? This is a great gem we have discovered at Kirribilli. This tiny cafe does not make its own breads, croissants and pastries, but they source what the owner considers 'the best' from other bakeries.
It is a tiny cafe and because they only have a limited number of each of the menu items (except coffee), you must be there early to be able to choose from the full menu. Both of my visits happened after 10:30am on a weekday and I was lucky enough to have the last two croissants of the day. The croissant was toasted crispy hot and came with cream and jam - but the plain croissant was good
enough for me and my tastebuds. The rye bread with ricotta and raspberry jam was refreshing though the raspberry wasn't fresh, so it didn't quite provide the sharp tart flavour I was expecting. They serve Toby's Estate coffee - ask for a cafe au lait in a bowl for breakfast, the way the French have their coffee in the morning.Overall this cafe is worthwhile visiting - great breads and pastries, consistently good coffee and friendly service - makes it a good mini-French-esque escape.
