Having come to the realization that food establishments closed relatively early out in Sydney, I…read moredecided to attempt my search for a dessert spot with later hours out in Chatswood, which was just a ride away on the train. Thus I turned up Tiny Sweetie. I'm partial to Chinese dessert soups, so I was looking forward to our visit to this rather tiny shop. We lucked out as a table emptied shortly after our arrival just a bit after 9pm. My DC had done his own research and found out that Tiny Sweetie was known for their homemade glutinous rice balls. These would be made to order and so would take 20 minutes, but we decided that the wait would be okay since we would be sharing. We started with the Black Rice, Red Bean, with Taro & Coconut Milk $5.50 and the Steamed Egg Custard $4.50, as they worked on the Peanut Glutinous Rice Balls (6) in Ginger Soup $5. The dessert soup was nice, though the black rice a bit scant. The steamed egg was warming but lacking in smoothness, perhaps due to a bit of overcooking. Their rice balls were tasty and worth the wait. 3.5 stars.

This is exactly the case with our visit to the Italian restaurant, Via Alta in the village shopping precinct in Willoughby. With their Italian wait staff and authentic dishes, the restaurant makes you feel as though you are holidaying in Italy, which is a great consolation, considering overseas travel is virtually impossible at the moment. Our dining experience at this restaurant was perfect in every way, their service was excellent, the atmosphere was cosy and the food was superb. Our blog aims give you a literary taste for what this restaurant is offering and hopefully will give you an impetus to make a booking and try the restaurant out for yourself. The meals here are quite rustic and very flavoursome. Not only this, the meals are extremely generous servings. We shared a range of the menu and enjoyed everything that we sampled. There is also a tasting menu if that is something you'd prefer and leave the ordering to the staff. To start with was the creamy burrata, which was a light starter with a lovely freshness, seved with orange and grapefruit segments and a bitter leaves sauce that was well seasoned with a unique flavour we very much enjoyed. The little things that this restaurant does really makes it stand out. For instance, their Zucco Arrosto salad is an absolute winner, for the roast pumpkin, baby spinach, thin ricotta slices and toasted almonds demonstrates how each ingredient carefully considered can make the plate pop with texture and taste. We really liked that the pumpkin was served warm, this took this salad to another level, as did the and the crunch and roasted flavour of the toasted almonds. I had a glass of Prosecco with the entree which matched perfectly, and Via Alta have a good drinks list with wine, beer and cocktails. The wild boar parpadelle was a stunning rustic dish and a standout of the dining experience (and the meals we've had in 2020). The fresh house made pasta was perfect in every way and served aldente, tossed with the wild boar ragout, which was beatifully rich and served with Parmesan cheese. It was certainly a very big potion too. The Gamberi grilled king prawns, tomato broth and garlic bruschetta was our other main, and equally tasty in different ways. This seafood dish is full of tomato sauce and the cherry tomatoes themselves. We loved that this was served on a piece of bread soaking up all of the luscious sauce. The flavour of the prawns stood out and they were in abundance. You know it's almost a rite of passage to have dessert at an Italian restaurant. Whilst we ordinarily go for a cannoli, we opted for a tiramisu on this visit since it sounded amazing, and it was. Layers of sponge cake doused in coffee and liquor with marscapone cream and sprinkled with powdered chocolate makes for the perfect end to the meal. We left here feeling completely satisfied with our meal and we look forward to returning for their truffle menu items in July and August.

I think they're going for that dark seductive ambiance vibe or I could be way off! After browsing the various collections of cakes (cakes the size you could put your whole face on!) we decided on ye good ole Kurtosh - cinnamon of course although the coconut was a good contender. $7.50 for one and made fresh to order which only took about 5 minutes which we happily sat around to wait for. The interior is an industrial style with exposed brick and dim lighting. As you walk in the cakes and pastries selection is on the left and straight ahead is their coffee station with a massive coffee machine! Down the back to the left is a large communal table for bigger groups etc. Will have to pop by again, as they have cute cups they serve their tea/coffee in and also to try their cookies and cream cake i spied earlier.

We called in after enjoying a lovely Vietnamese dinner in Crows Nest and were not in mood for Asian dessert. When would anybody ever be in the mood for Asian desserts. Besides, come to think of it I don't think I've ever tasted a great Asian dessert - ever. I mean the choice is clear isn't it. Asian dessert - Italian dessert - it's a no brainer. And I reckon that's why you don't see many overweight Asians - cos their desserts are so unappealing. Luckily for us just a short stroll around the corner was Sparrow. We swooped in on the last available table and watched the people coming in and lining up for their sweet fix of super yum gelato. Yum! We ordered coffee gelato in a crisp sugar cone and fig gelato in a cup. The fig gelato was so lovely and figgy - even had those teeny weeny fig seeds which added a nice crunch. And guess what!? Clam chowder has come to Crows Nest. Yes, that's right, now Sparrow features Clam Chowder for lunch. Definitely gonna sample this. Stay tuned for my clam chowder review.

But it is more than just a gelateria. It is a café that, in addition to making simply delicious sandwiches and salads, also offers a brunch. Retro in feel, Sparrow is very cozy on the inside with dark chairs and wooden walls. There's also an outdoor patio where you can enjoy your food. The showcase of gelato is right in the front, so you can't miss it. You'll find some traditional flavors like chocolate and vanilla, but what you should really try is some of the more unique tastes. Among the best I tried were the pear and rhubarb (so good!) and blood orange. Even if you don't like fruit-flavored ice cream, there are some richer flavors that will surely satisfy you, like the chocolate toffee crunch. One scoop of gelato is around $4. Likewise, the items on the menu are quite affordable with everything under $15. If you find yourself on the North shore on a sunny afternoon, you should pay Sparrow a visit.
