    Having come to the realization that food establishments closed relatively early out in Sydney, I…read moredecided to attempt my search for a dessert spot with later hours out in Chatswood, which was just a ride away on the train. Thus I turned up Tiny Sweetie. I'm partial to Chinese dessert soups, so I was looking forward to our visit to this rather tiny shop. We lucked out as a table emptied shortly after our arrival just a bit after 9pm. My DC had done his own research and found out that Tiny Sweetie was known for their homemade glutinous rice balls. These would be made to order and so would take 20 minutes, but we decided that the wait would be okay since we would be sharing. We started with the Black Rice, Red Bean, with Taro & Coconut Milk $5.50 and the Steamed Egg Custard $4.50, as they worked on the Peanut Glutinous Rice Balls (6) in Ginger Soup $5. The dessert soup was nice, though the black rice a bit scant. The steamed egg was warming but lacking in smoothness, perhaps due to a bit of overcooking. Their rice balls were tasty and worth the wait. 3.5 stars.

Definitely called my mom that night :) Prices are incredibly cheap and the quality is pretty good but slightly on the watered-down side. I've tried the red bean cooler (a mountain of ice with red beans and evaporated milk) and almond tea with lotus seeds, both which were good. Super small space that fits roughly 20 inside and 6 outside. You'll find a range of customers, from the lone guy who needs a quick dessert break, to small groups who wanna grab dessert after an outing.

This is exactly the case with our visit to the Italian restaurant, Via Alta in the village shopping precinct in Willoughby. With their Italian wait staff and authentic dishes, the restaurant makes you feel as though you are holidaying in Italy, which is a great consolation, considering overseas travel is virtually impossible at the moment. Our dining experience at this restaurant was perfect in every way, their service was excellent, the atmosphere was cosy and the food was superb. Our blog aims give you a literary taste for what this restaurant is offering and hopefully will give you an impetus to make a booking and try the restaurant out for yourself. The meals here are quite rustic and very flavoursome. Not only this, the meals are extremely generous servings. We shared a range of the menu and enjoyed everything that we sampled. There is also a tasting menu if that is something you'd prefer and leave the ordering to the staff. To start with was the creamy burrata, which was a light starter with a lovely freshness, seved with orange and grapefruit segments and a bitter leaves sauce that was well seasoned with a unique flavour we very much enjoyed. The little things that this restaurant does really makes it stand out. For instance, their Zucco Arrosto salad is an absolute winner, for the roast pumpkin, baby spinach, thin ricotta slices and toasted almonds demonstrates how each ingredient carefully considered can make the plate pop with texture and taste. We really liked that the pumpkin was served warm, this took this salad to another level, as did the and the crunch and roasted flavour of the toasted almonds. I had a glass of Prosecco with the entree which matched perfectly, and Via Alta have a good drinks list with wine, beer and cocktails. The wild boar parpadelle was a stunning rustic dish and a standout of the dining experience (and the meals we've had in 2020). The fresh house made pasta was perfect in every way and served aldente, tossed with the wild boar ragout, which was beatifully rich and served with Parmesan cheese. It was certainly a very big potion too. The Gamberi grilled king prawns, tomato broth and garlic bruschetta was our other main, and equally tasty in different ways. This seafood dish is full of tomato sauce and the cherry tomatoes themselves. We loved that this was served on a piece of bread soaking up all of the luscious sauce. The flavour of the prawns stood out and they were in abundance. You know it's almost a rite of passage to have dessert at an Italian restaurant. Whilst we ordinarily go for a cannoli, we opted for a tiramisu on this visit since it sounded amazing, and it was. Layers of sponge cake doused in coffee and liquor with marscapone cream and sprinkled with powdered chocolate makes for the perfect end to the meal. We left here feeling completely satisfied with our meal and we look forward to returning for their truffle menu items in July and August.

    These guys have amazing coffee and desserts. There, I said it…read more Picture this - it was a cold Monday morning as I realised I had 10min before I had to hop onto the train to uni. Winter had really started to roll in. I could've gone to the usual cafes closer to the station but this little place with cute seating outside its' kiosk caught my eye. Then a sign that I had never seen in my life was before me: HAPPY COFFEE HOUR. That's right kids, you heard it from me. Between 7-9am, a regular coffee is only $2.50 (large $3.00) from the usual $3.50!!! That's a whopping $1 off. Now if you're an avid coffee drinker that needs their caffeine fix every morning, 5 days a week, 50 weeks a year (2 weeks for holidays!), that would say you a crazy $250 a year! The best part is, the coffee is amazing. My usual drink, the flat white, had that perfect velvety top and their blend is aromatic and flavourful. Not to mention, the service is top notch! Super friendly and warm. I can't wait to race back to this place. I am such a BIG fan. I will have to get my teeth into those desserts next time as well. I see you brownie, don't worry baby, I'll be back for ya.
