Another well reputed patisserie to try, excitedly arrived…read more Stylish storefront suddenly appears in the unimpressive industrial area. From outside, I saw full of patrons ordering their food and beverage. Our expectation went high! Bought: - Plain croissant - Plain Beignet with Sugar - Canelé - Lemon Meringue Tarte - Pear Almond Tart - Opera Croissant was good, nothing outstanding, nothing lacking. BUT! $3.25 for this quality is super reasonable, I should be feeling blessed! (I know other places charge us over $5 in spite of their mediocre quality.) Beignet is like a donut. Flurry, not too sweet, a tad dry. Canele was very disappointing. The outer had a nice bitter taste but not crunchy (it should be crunchy) rather, sticky soft... Interior had a large air pocket, which I feel is a structural defect. Lemon Meringue Tart - each part (meringue, lemon custard, tart base) was good, but integration was not. Tart base was too hard for the other super soft filling. Opera was surprisingly good. Although its looks did not have the precision that I expect for opera cake, it had very delicate layers. Almond cake base, smooth chocolate ganache, coffee butter cream, crispy top layer, and detectable rum kick. I liked it. Nice texture as well. I regretted not buying tart tartan - because many people seem to like it. Also sourdough - I think I should come back to try these :) !!!!

This bakery has quickly become a place I plan to visit again and again.

It will be revitalized for the next two years. Many businesses have shuttered for good. This one and its sister business, Cafe on the Go, were still open when I was there. This store was still doing solid business. It's likely because folks wanted patties I wanted to reminisce. Staff were friendly despite a rather sombre last day. Both the cafe and bakery accepted cash and debit cards only. This place had hot foods, sandwiches, and more. Grabbing a beef patty will always be a fond memory for me. It's the perfect snack while waiting for your bus or train. It's bittersweet seeing businesses affected by the demolition. The nice woman let me know that there's a Cafe on the Go at Islington station. I may drop by someday to get my patty fix and more. I'm happy that I got to stop by one last time. (462)

It was very cute as it was a mini and I was excited to try it. Unfortunately, as the name of the store suggests, this cupcake was extremely sweet. I did not enjoy it too much because it was too sweet for my liking.

She ended up buying a tray full of things. I had baklava and all things that looked like forms of baklava with like the same kind of ingredients and stuff. The owner or employee gave us each some long kinda round thing for us to try and it was so so good. Absolutely delicious. Then Aoi bought a small container of two different types of desserts for each of us to have. One had Nutella in it and was absolutely delicious. It was so good. The other one was a harder crispy or another type of pistachio type baklava thing I don't know what it was, but that was also good, but the Nutella thing was really really good The store is really small but cute and has a lot of stuff in it. You'll want to buy everything that's there. It all just looks so perfect. Next time we go to Toronto, I definitely want to make a pitstop and grab some things. The prices were not bad at all either. They're pretty darn good.

I usually get a small assorted box for around eight dollars and get five or six nice and large pieces of baklava, which by the way, there is a lot of assortment of. The workers are quick, kind, and very informative about the different kinds of baklava and what is in each pastry. I felt safe with my mild hazelnut allergies as I was told which pastry had what nuts inside of it. Would recommend the pistachio baklava, as that kind if my favourite. Please check this spot out !

Once you get in, walk straight to get yourself a ticket since they call the numbers to serve people. The spot is HUGE with lots of variety of cakes, sweets, pastries, gelato, pastas, sauces, and so much more! The man helping us behind the counter was great and we got some delicious treats. Here's what we got: Cannoli 5/5 - MUST GET. Best thing we had there. It was so fresh and well rounded in flavour. Kataifi 5/5 - Super crispy and sweet! Another must get. Baklava 4/5 - Sticky and sweet. But I thought it was tad too sweet for my liking. Touloumbes 4/5 - This was good and great for sharing but I thought it lacked a little crunch to the exterior. Gelato 5/5 - Thought this gelato was great! Especially the strawberry cheesecake and nutella! Smooth, velvety and delicious. Overall, the variety here is so big that I can't wait to try other options here!

There are currently 6 different flavours: Lindt Dark Chocolate, Lindt White Chocolate, Red Velvet Lindt White Chocolate, Lindt Milk Chocolate, Salted Caramel, and Nutella.
