Flakey, crunchy and perfectly pepperily seasoned - my veggie pepper pasty was scrumptious on a cold Port Adelaide morning. It means they've used butter in their pastry and you're onto a hidden gem. This newly renovated and owned bakery is also very well laid out so you can sit and eat at their inside bench top or outside to avoid leaving crumbs everywhere. A modern and fresh interior with cool industrial lighting has been enough to take this place from corner shop to destination bakery. We couldn't help but order a Veneziano coffee, which was strong and really beautifully flavoured (I wish I knew what blend they were using as it was so different). And with ingredients like KI Honey, the hipster in me couldn't avoid ordering a honey and pistachio baked cheesecake. It was dense, creamy and a great sweetness mixed with the slightly sour cheesecake. Lovely service and still unknown to the general public, I'd get down here one seedy Saturday morning too and fill up on baked goods!

The sweet danishes and pastries on the counter will break every bit of willpower you thought you had. I came to try the famous Danwich. Yes, danish sandwich. I got the Danish Harlett which was guacamole, maple bacon, soft boiled egg and dukkah all sat atop a high puffy pastry. It's quite a rich start to the day but everything about it is delicious. The soft boiled egg is perfectly cooked, the egg yolk is so creamy it's almost sinful. Can I just say as well that I looooove the way they name their pastries. So clever. PS: We may have bought some more "for the road".

Abbots & Kinney are by no means new to Adelaide - they have been popping up all over the place for…read morea while now. Their most regular haunts have probably been in Leigh St in the CBD and in the Unley Metro shopping centre. But rejoice! Because now they have their own home on Pirie St. These guys are the absolute pros of pastry. Their almond croissant has got to be the best I have ever had in Adelaide. They're constantly coming up with new sweet and savoury options that intrigue and delight with their names alone (such as 'silly sausage' and 'mark prosciutto')! There are healthyish options - 'danwiches', soups, pasties & toasties - but you can also get your fill of delicious and decadent sweets. Think donuts injected with jam and custard, croissants, danishes and sfogliatelle warm out of the oven. I'm getting hungry just writing this! The coffee is good and the staff are friendly. I was wearing my work name badge as I ordered, and when my coffee was brought to me and when I left I was thanked by name, which always makes me feel welcomed. The fit out of this place is simple but attractive, and I think this is important because it is really what they are making that should be doing the showing off! I'm looking forward to visiting these guys again and seeing what else they have to offer my rumbling tummy!

The egg and bacon breakfast roll and the chunky steak pie are definitely worth a try. The customer service here is excellent, and I'm pleased to say that a friendly smile makes a big difference.

I strongly recommend visiting this bakery, which is situated in the center of a charming suburb.

Glazed donuts, anyone?…read more Or maybe you fancy a gourmet pie instead? Whatever you decide you wont be disappointed, outside of France, this is the best bakery food I've had in my whole entire life. These guys have bread and cakes and pastries that are so good that you have get there at about 11 at the latest if you want a look in, failing that don't even bother. You can eat in or take your magical pastry away with you. I've never eaten in, but then I'm a culprit for buying a box of 9 glazed donuts (why stop at one?) and I don't really want everyone staring at me while I chow down on such a large portion of sugary goodness. Don't be discouraged by the premises, it isn't a fancy bakery, these guys spend more of their time perfecting their baking technique than painting the walls. It's great that I don't have to go all the way to Lobethal to get to the Lobethal Bakery, sometimes people are confused by the name, but there are 3 of these bakeries in total, Woodside/Lobethal/Stirling so take your pick.

The Lobethal Bakery (LB) is a real treat. So much so that I always get a real disappointed feeling…read moreremembering that they're always closed on Sundays. I've been told it's for religious reasons, but I swear it's just to tease the locals so they keep coming back for more. Everything I've tried from this LB (and the associated Woodside outlet) has been uber tasty. I love a good, spicy chilli kranksy and the LB kransky is awesome. The pies are well made, not too hot on your first bite (crucial so as not to ruin the rest of the pie), and the lunch rolls, quiches, pasties, donuts and bread are all high quality. Sometimes it can take a few minutes to get service, but I can't blame other patrons for wanting to load up on LB goodies. One thing I can't get my head around is, why did they franchise the bakery with the name of another town?? 'We're just going down to the Lobethal Bakery to grab a bite. The Lobethal Bakery. In Stirling.' Que??! Besides that minor grammatical annoyance/anomaly, and as mentioned above the fact they're always closed on Sundays, I can't really fault this place. It is next to the Stirling public car park which makes it usually easy to find a very close park, and it's a 50metre walk from the Main Street. Going for a stroll this time of year in Stirling is worth braving the mild cold weather. Autumn is a beautiful season here. Just pack a jumper, gloves and some serviettes to wipe away those tasty LB crumbs!

They offer the expected range you'd find in any bakery - bread, rolls, sausage rolls and pies, donuts and eclairs, etc. They do, however, have one huge claim to fame - their sign touts the best apple pies in Adelaide, and they could just have that one down pat. Don't get me wrong, everything else is good - but yes, those apple pies are spectacular.

As soon as I walked in the door of this humble-looking establishment, I was confident that I'd get…read moresomething good. It was tidy, and there were no trestle tables piled high with plastic-bagged buns and dodgy doughnuts. Furthermore, the range of goods was not too extensive; they're sticking with what they know they can do, which increases the odds of all of us getting a tasty treat. I bought a sliced wholemeal loaf, a veg pasty - their last one, a mini custard-filled chocolate-glazed Berliner, and a mini standard jam-filled Berliner with pink icing (they did have the full-sized versions, but I like to start slow and get to know my pastries). My gastronomic medicine bundle came to a very reasonable $11.50. Whoever's in the kitchen of this bakery has a dab hand and fine palate, because neither of the Berliners were sickly sweet. It's harder than it looks to make mini versions of these things too; it's fiddly, and when you add a custard or jam fill, and then glaze, you always run the risk of overdoing sugar and balance of flavours. Not so these folks, I could taste all of it. What is more, and I still don't believe my good fortune, the glazes/icing had flavour! I haven't enjoyed a proper chocolate doughnut with a decent glaze in eons. At the last bakery I visited, the attendant responded 'pink or brown?' when I asked for a doughnut. I so wanted to walk out. Thankfully 'pink or brown' isn't in the Your Choice vocabulary. Their glaze tasted like chocolate, and aesthetically it was nothing like that brown roof-tile cement that seems to be everywhere nowadays. I love being compensated for my losses, and these puffy little fried dough balls did just that. The chocolate glaze had a nice texture too: the icing was soft but set, and the colour of it resembled a high-end ganache. Don't get me wrong, when I walk into a nice little bakery like this, I don't expect Valrona 80% gently melted down in a double-boiler and then emulsified by organic Jersey cream--yummy--but that's not what I want. I want what I paid for: that bakery of yesteryear chocolate essence, maybe with a little generic cocoa added, you know, the doughnuts you had when you were a kid, with icing that stuck to the brown paper bag, and to your lips when you ate them in three or four gulps. You'll get the brown paper bags at Your Choice, and a memorable icing that tastes like it should. You will also get a custard filling that's generous, smooth, again not sickly sweet, and it has just enough vanilla flavour. The dough was fried to perfection, nicely browned and nutty on the outside, light and cooked through on the inside. The standard Berliner was likewise perfect. The pink icing actually had a subtle strawberry flavour, the jam had a distinct raspberry taste, and there was a good squeeze of it in the bun, but not so much that you end up with it all over your face and collar if you go in hard! The wholemeal bread's good, and so was the pasty. I liked the visual appeal of the pasty and the pastry; it wasn't too greasy and didn't leave a film on the roof of my mouth. I think that the filling needs a little work though. I'm pretty sure it had cheese in it, and I'm not a big fan of cheese in pasties (unless they're spinach). Adding cheese typically results in a saltier filling, and it undoes the textural joy of eating a great pasty. The best pasties also have a little swede or turnip, trombone, and sweet pumpkin to complement the potatoes. The other problem with adding cheese relates more to commercial and marketing considerations. You lose all of your vegan clientele, and they appreciate having a break from having to cook all of the time to get good clean food. Vegetarians also get tired of people just adding cheese to everything. Contrary to popular belief, most vegetarians don't rely on cheese for their protein and vegans of course don't. The best bet is to make a damn fine fresh veg pasty. Your Choice is halfway there because they have great pastry, they're clean, and they know how to cook. They could roll the dice like Yankalilla Bakery did the last time I was there and offer both a cheese pasty and a plain veg pasty. However, if your margins are low (you're in food in 2018 so that's a given) and you don't have the seaside tourist trade, keep it simple and seasonal. Your Choice should just reinvent the pasty they've already got. Overall, 4 out of 5 stars. If it were down only to the Berliners: an easy 5 for 5. Next time, I'm going to get my hands on their Bienenstich. I wanted one this time around but they were sold out, by MIDDAY! That fact alone speaks volumes about how good these illusive Beestings will probably be.
