Breakfast of Champions

La Renaissance Cafe Patisserie
47 Argyle St, Sydney
Cute little cafe in The Rocks, La Renaissance Cafe Patisserie was a busy little place when we arrived in the morning several hours before our lunch at Quay

Browsing through the various tasty looking pastries in the display case, I was having some major difficulties selecting what I wanted... I want it all! I finally settled on a mixed fruit tart. It looks so pretty and cute. It tasted as good as it looks too. The tart base was light and crumbly; the glazed fruit were arranged in a tasteful manner.


I then finished it off with a caffe macchiato. Not to be confused with a latte macchiato, a caffe macchiato is a shot of expresso with a little bit of milk rather than a big-o-cup of milk with a shot of expresso. It was some strong stuff!


Atmosphere: 7 out of 10. We sat out in the patio by the street. The historic buildings surrounding us provided a beautiful backdrop as we enjoyed our tasty pastries.
Food: 7 out of 10. You can't go wrong with tasty pastries.
Presentation: 8 out of 10. Looking good ; )
Price: 7 out 10. Average prices.
Service: N/A.
Overall: 7 out of 10. A great start to an amazing day!
