Stopped by here for some Sat afternoon tea. There is a pretty good range of sweet treats, all very delicate & lovely looking, we sampled a few & got some tea as well. The cakes we had, Mont Blanc, fig & hazelnut, lemon meringue were all very good. Service was ok.
Havent been to broadway foe quite long. And this Scandi Influenced Interior design catches my eyes. Food is very nice . Spaghetti Alloscoglio is very nice large portion. I ordered as well a Rissoto with squid ink is well cooked ! Napoletana pizza large portion as well good for sharing. Love everything about the place and food . However me and my friend got a wrong order twice. And my Rissoto I ordered with extra crab on it didnt get it. Great for casual , group and Romantic dinner . They do offer brunch as well. And looking forward to try it soon.
Got some cakes take away here. Ive come a few other times but seemed to always pick the wrong cake. Ordered a few to go and it was a hit and miss with the cakes. Got the brownie, passion fruit cheesecake, lychee and apple cake. The passion fruit cheesecake was delightful. Had a great balance of acidity with sweetness and a really yummy crunchy base. I liked this one in general. The other good cake was the lychee one. This was light and fluffy but also not too sweet. It also had great textures going on and a lovely biscuit base.Now for the bad… the apple cake was really confusing. I forgot what was even in it other than apple but this was extremely sweet and was not pleasant to eat. The brownie cake was the same. This was extremely bitter and had a strong taste of alcohol in it. It was really unpleasant and hard to eat.Overall, some cakes are great, others… not so much. The service here is pretty bad too. While we were ordering one of the waitresses interrupted us to ask the lady at the counter something. They went into deep conversation while we stood there with half an order in the box. For the price you pay, it does make me feel reluctant to come back here (around $9 per cake). I will probably hold off unless they intrigue me with a crazy flavour that sounds hard to resist. Stick with the likes of Zumbo or Koi – much better investment.
