I’m not sure who brought it up first, but during breakfast my sister Juji, her boyfriend Jay, Jac and I talked about a French bakery nearby on Mends Street. After our salty and savoury cooked breakfasts, we were quite keen to have something sweet – the four of us made a sweets stop at that […]
We celebrated B’s birthday at work with a morning tea last Wednesday. She supplied the eats – a box of cannoli from Corica Pastries (106 Aberdeen St, Perth) – enough for each person to have a whole one to him/herself! Where to start? To give you an idea of size, the cannoli is on a […]
It was my boss’ birthday last Thursday and there was much feasting to be done. A chocolate mud cake, topped with sheets of chocolate and adorned with lightly roasted flaked almonds. And of course, a selection of gorgeous mini cakes, pastries and tarts from Chez Jean-Claude Patisserie. This time we were particularly interested to see [……
I had the day off last Friday, which I spent at uni. I still have some work to do on the PhD thesis. I’m not going to elaborate, so please don’t ask about it. I’m only mentioning where I was to put the food into some sort of context. I started my day with a […]
My workmate RR recently bought selection of goodies from Chez Jean Claude Patisserie for afternoon tea to celebrate his birthday. I sneaked in ahead of time to take photos, of course. I lifted the lid from the box, and wow! Even after half a dozen or so morning/afternoon teas featuring Jean Claude fare, I still […]
We had a team meeting on Friday afternoon last week, and as a treat for the troops and to say welcome to new person J, my boss purchased a selection of pastries and tartlettes from Chez Jean Claude Patisserie. I’ve featured these before, but I never get tired of gazing at these gorgeous little pastries […]
These photos are from last Saturday. I meant to post them during the week but never got the chance. After doing some grocery shopping, we picked up something for lunch from the bakery at Bentley shopping centre. Jac chose a cheese sausage in pastry (you know, I reckon it looks pretty gross in this photo, […]
It was Chad’s birthday on Wednesday, and she brought in a box of goodies from Jean Claude Patisserie for the team to share. The delicious anticipation created by the sight of this box was immense! Chad said I could take photos of the goodies within before the hungry hoards (well, not exactly hoards!) arrived. That’s […]
It was my boss’ birthday this week, and she very generously got a beautiful assortment of pastries, cakes and tarts from Chez Jean-Claude Patisserie for everyone to have for afternoon tea. I felt a little bashful asking if I could take photos of someone else’s birthday food, but my workmates have definitely got into the […]
I pass by Croissant Express just about every morning on my way to work, and on Monday morning I decided to get one of their freshly baked savoury pastries for my breakfast. I chose a delicious-looking pillow-shaped chicken and vegetable bistro pastry ($.3.80). I love puff pastry. To me, it’s a squillion times more delicious […]
