CAFÉ PATISSE GREENSIDE

BEST FOR Sweet treats. FOOD Chef Martin Ferreira is best known for his ornate and decadent patisserie, confectionery and bespoke cakes. Breakfasts include Eggs Your Way (eggs prepared to your liking served with three toppings and toast); smoothie bowls; and an energy bowl of fruit, yoghurts, nuts and seeds. For lunch, you’ll find vegan offerings like a Buddha bowl and falafel wrap, pizzas and café items ranging from battered fish and chips to a Wagyu beef burger. The falafel served with pita, fried aubergine and dips makes for a tasty lunch. Sweets are the main attraction: éclairs, cronuts, mini pecan pies, milk tarts, lemon meringue or an assortment of opera cakes – they’re the perfect pint-sized morsel for an afternoon treat. DRINKS No liquor licence; a rudimentary selection of teas, coffees and juices. SERVICE Service is on the casual, slow side. Waiters are friendly. AMBIENCE Pretty tones of pale blue line the interior.
