With 5 classes today I don’t have a lot of time to do other things. But I did take Scully for a short drive over to Neutral Bay for lunch. The day was cool and very, very windy, so I didn’t fancy taking her on a long walk. Instead I found a French bakery that I haven’t visited before and decided to go there and get something for lunch.
La Bonne Bakery had a selection of bread and baguettes, and an array of pastries:
But they didn’t have much else apart from these. A man entered the shop just before me and asked for a pie, but the staff said they didn’t make pies any more. They did have some croque monsieurs made and ready to be reheated for lunch, so I grabbed one of those, as well as a pain au chocolat, and a slice of pecan tart to take home for dessert later tonight. I took them with Scully to a small park nearby to sit and eat while she ran around on the grass. The croque monsieur and pain au chocolat were both really good. I haven’t tried the pecan tart yet, but it looks amazing.
I’ll have to go back here again and take my wife some day to try it out. It’s also convenient with that park nearby where Scully can be off-lead, with a fence around it.
