A favourite amongst both locals and neighboring suburbs, The Basin Bakery has achieved pride of…read moreplace in the hearts and stomachs of all who visit. Operating 7 days of the week, and making a great variety of bread, pies and sweets, its best to get in early if you're after your choice of pie or pasty. With most hot food snapped up by early afternoon, its sometimes wise to purchase your pie cold and have it on hand at home, rather than risk missing out. Growing up, "The Basin Bread' was a term that became a household benchmark to compare all breads. Maybe I like bread more than the next guy, but hey, all you have to do it try it yourself and you'll know what I mean. Great service by local staff, and a home-style feel to the cooking rates The Basin Bakery as my favourite Bakery. I challenge any other Bakery to try and sway me. Send pies to my home address...

Beautiful café, but the food was a let-down. Paid $40 for two poached eggs with bacon--eggs were…read moreovercooked, bacon tasted odd, and the bread was rock-hard and obviously frozen. Serving this in such a stylish place is pretty disappointing. No butter on the toast, either. Desserts were decent, but for the price and presentation, the basics should be much better. Wouldn't come back for breakfast.

First impression is the speakers mounted above the door to entertain those that sit at the tables…read moreout the front. A bit loud and not great sound quality so head inside, ah, that's better. TV on wall showing music videos but the customers don't seem interested in it. The place certainly looks clean and inviting in a slightly cramped clinical sort of way. The tables are small but should comfortably fit four adults but not much wiggle room around them would really limit you to three I think. The mug of Flat White is a good size and is nice and hot with a good flavour, the chai latte tastes nice but having never tried it before, I have no reference to compare it to. Certainly nice enough for me to try again. There are a plethora of items to choose from to eat. I had a delicious roast beef and salad with cheese and lovely mustard with my choice of roll, a great combination of flavours and textures. The tandoori wrap was a delight but bordered on the edge of being to hot. Then you cast your eye over a sheer symphony of delightful desserts, a masterpiece of items to get your taste buds jumping up and down with delicious anticipation. How do you decide from such a selection, can you stop at just one or do you flee to save that waist line you've sacrificed so much for. Of course you get a couple of things promising yourself to work that bit harder next time at the Gym. Enjoy, it's the little pleasures in life that add up you know. So, will I drag myself reluctantly back here. You better believe it, especially now I can afford it since cancelling that pesky gym membership. Oh oh, there goes that waist line Back to reality for a moment, there were two uninvited guests at my table today, a legacy of the open door policy, Mr Mozzy and Mrs Blowy. Other than that, a really nice little place with very friendly staff and reasonable prices. Enjoy.

Okka Pies are the kings of home made pies and party food…read more Selling regular sized cold pies in packages of 2, or party pies and pastries in larger amounts, they are a great way to ensure your next party will be well stocked with good hot food. I love the cauli-broccoli pies. With a great cheesy sauce throughout, and fresh vegetables, they are always the best I've tried and never disappoint. As they are only open from 7am-3pm Mon to Friday, it's best you order ahead to make sure you get what you need for you next party.

I'm talking cake tins in the shape of Minnie Mouse people. See what I mean? The shop is super colourful and every shelf presents some wonderfully exciting decoration or idea. There is a wall of photos of cakes that people have made using decorations from the shop or that they have created in one of the classes run by the shop. Classes are outlined on the website and I've been told that they sell out really quickly. The next round due to be advertised will appear in mid January 2012 so make sure you're checking the website around then so that you don't miss out. Service here is awesome and the person who served me was happy to tell me all about the classes and what happens in each. She was very friendly and totally won me over on the idea of classes. Like many others I am eagerly awaiting January!

Cakes, I loves cakes especially yummy Italian treats. Now I know ferntree gully is a bit of a hike…read morefor most yelpers but if you love out this way or are just in the hood i highly recommend stopping in. I have a particular soft spot for mini ricotta cannoli actually make that mini cannoli of any description so they will always make my list. The cabinet is full with minutes pastry, custard and cream delights and you can also get full sized cakes, larger cakes for celebrations or biscuits. Being of Italian origin I love bringing a tray of biscuits or mini pastries for a special occasion. I was meeting my boyfriend's family for the first time and the team kindly let me in after hours to pick my treats. If you are wanting something extra special try the semi freddo. These need to be ordered ahead of time but you won't be disappointed. The cake is made up off layers of gelato between alcohol infused Italian sponge cake and usually some custard cream. You even get to pick your gelato flavours (normally 2).

The service was great, we has Pheobe serving us and she was engaging and lovely. The meals were presented beautifully and nothing was left behind. But if you had room there is a cake display that supersedes most I've seen outside of Acland Street, St Kilda. Everything looked delicious and reasonable sizes too. The fresh apple juice was a little overdone with the ice blocks, but Chai and coffee's were great. We really couldn't fault the service or the food. This is not your sit and have a long lunch kind of establishment. As it is SO busy, it can be quite noisy and hectic. And once you've eaten you expected to move on. The parking is a tricky, but there are places around that you can park. I believe if you go during the week their pastry kitchen operates and with a full glass viewing area you can see the pastry cooks at work. And as a side note, there are some walking/bike tracks around a great playground just around the corner. Enjoy.
