$7.50 This really shouldn’t be called spanakopita, as this is a very far cry from the Greek pie of phyllo pastry stuffed full of gooey feta and spinach. This thing was about 50% pastry (it seemed more like puff pastry than phyllo), 40% air, and only 10% filling. This seems to be a common trend among this café’s savoury pastries- a very scant and skimpy tablespoon of actual filling lost amongst a heap of dry pastry flakes 😩 The stinginess of the vegan feta and spinach filling in this pastry maddened me more after I paid an exorbitant $7.50 for it. They know how to do their sweet stuff here, but the savoury has lost my patronage.

$5 The baker in this café definitely knows their stuff and you can tell that they’ve been trained well to make their French pastries properly. Everything from the thin, flakey, crispy crust, to the soft, buttery, delicately thin layers of pastry inside was perfect. I got this at the Oh My Days market stall in Hornsby and got to talk to the owners. I was surprised to be told that they use Shea butter fairly traded from women’s cooperatives in Africa as their vegan butter substitute in their pastries, which turns their croissants from empty carb and fat calories to something with a somewhat decent nutrient profile. Not that I need any incentive to eat them anyway lol. Just one tiny, subjective way this croissant could possibly improve is the salt factor. To achieve the saltiness of the salted butter used in traditional French croissants (from my memory of eating the real thing in France in my pre-vegan days), just a little more salt is needed I think. Otherwise you can just slather on some salted vegan butter onto eat bite and that’ll fix it 👍

$5 Although the cream inside had a blue tinge, this cannoli tasted neither of blueberry nor of pistachio, but just a sweet plain mock cream. The pastry was super crispy and flakey in its deep-fried goodness, but the cream inside was a disappointment. Each end seemed to be dipped in a fine biscuit crumb (maybe that was the pistachio part?) which really had no flavour to offer apart from sweetness, and the cream was your average old fashioned mock cream. Their hazelnut cannoli, although not amazing either, is better than this one as that has both ends dipped in chocolate and offers a change of flavour other than sugar and pastry. #sweetdreamsaremadeofgrease

I set them the ultimate barista task of creating me a big Babycino consisting of about 90% froth, but what they gave me instead was just a cup of macadamia milk that was 20% froth, 80% liquid, and 100% still over $4 for it. *sigh* They add a vegan tax of 50c to all their plant milks (oat, almond, soy, macadamia) for some reason, even though they’re a 100% vegan café and they’re the only milks available. Why not just automatically incorporate that price into the coffee and say the choice of milks are free?
