A look back at our #FoodieFriday #QueenWest #PastryCrawl with @eatingthroughto! @nugateau NEW #ParisBrest, a donut shaped #chouxpastry filled with #pistachio or #raspberry #lychee plus a selection of their seasonal #eclairs including a classic #lemonmeringue. #knafeh @soufis_to, a #Levantine dessert of melted #cheese + shredded #phyllo #pastry, baked + drizzled with clarified butter + orange blossom syrup, topped with pistachios. #bombolone with vanilla custard + hazelnut chocolate, #rumbabas, rum soaked pastry with whipped cream, + raspberry #crostata @sudforno, an Italian bakery that’s part of the @terronito family. #canales, a caramelized exterior cake with a bubbly texture created from a high heat initial bake followed by a lower temperature slow bake + #hazelnutpraline #cake, with contrasting light airy #mousse + crispy #praline centre @nadegetoronto. Our final stop was an #Argentinian cafe @elalmacenyerbamatecafe for #yerbamate or #mate, a tea enjoyed communally with a metal straw + #alfajores, #dulchedeleche filled cookies with a #coconut exterior we got to make ourselves. Our guide Mackenzie had spent some time in Argentina + showed us how to prepare the tea properly at the table + guided us through cookie assembly. All the stops were within walking distance, with many different varieties of pastries + a little bit of Toronto culture added in.
